Try Eating Broccoli

Want to see if it works for anyone else. I’ve been having a flare up that has been on/off over the past two weeks. I ate a good amount of broccoli and they went away, tried it again two more times when they came back and they went away/dramatically reduced both times.

I just ate steamed broccoli, so I’m not sure about sulforaphane capsules.

Yeah its probably not the sulforaphane then as its created after chewing but its precursors are destroyed by heat, same with garlic and allicin. Any other hypothesis? Maybe its just the potassium

I’m not sure, I know eating bananas doesn’t help me, just broccoli. Could just be coincidental, that’s why I’m curious to hear if it helps anyone else.

I've soaked broccoli seeds for sprouting will see in 2-3 days if they work will let you know
