Broccoli is one of the most nutrient-dense foods known;
it offers an incredibly high level of nutrition for a very low caloric cost.

Beneforté broccoli is even more of a good thing. It is the result of over 10 years of cross-pollination and selection to combine the best attributes of commercial broccoli with a wild broccoli variety found in southern Italy. This wild broccoli, related to the familiar broccoli we eat today, has a unique, increased ability to produce phytonutrients such as glucoraphanin.

Our body takes glucoraphanin and turns it to sulforaphane. Sulforaphane naturally boosts our body's Antioxidant Enzyme levels, which help sustain normal cellular processes by maintaining our body's defenses against the damage of environmental pollutants and free radicals. These enzymes also maintain the beneficial antioxidant activity of vitamins A, C and E in our body. Glucoraphanin has always been present in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts and kale; though broccoli has the highest concentration of this phytonutrient.
