Supports detoxification, inflammation balance, and cellular protection through sulforaphane-rich broccoli microgreens.
Our Detox Blend is built around one of the most researched functional plant compounds in nutrition science: sulforaphane - found in exceptionally high concentrations in broccoli microgreens.
Broccoli microgreens contain up to 20–40× more glucoraphanin (the precursor to sulforaphane) than mature broccoli, making them one of the most potent whole-food tools for supporting the body’s natural detoxification systems.
What This Blend Supports
• Liver detoxification pathways
• Hormone detox and estrogen metabolism
• Inflammatory balance
• Environmental toxin defense
• Cellular oxidative stress protection
• Immune system resilience
The Science Behind Detox Microgreens
Sulforaphane Activation
Broccoli microgreens contain glucoraphanin, which converts into sulforaphane when the plant is chewed or blended.
Sulforaphane has been studied for its role in:
• Activating Phase II liver detox enzymes
• Increasing glutathione production
• Supporting toxin elimination
• Protecting DNA from oxidative damage
Nrf2 Pathway Activation
Sulforaphane activates the Nrf2 pathway, a genetic signaling pathway that regulates the body’s antioxidant and detoxification responses.
When activated, Nrf2 signals cells to produce protective enzymes that help neutralize toxins and reduce systemic inflammation.
This pathway is widely studied in connection to:
• Chronic inflammation
• Environmental toxin exposure
• Cellular aging
• Immune regulation
Hormone Detox Support
Detoxification isn’t just about environmental toxins, it also involves hormone processing.
Sulforaphane supports the liver’s ability to metabolize excess estrogen, which is why broccoli microgreens are often used in nutritional protocols addressing:
• Estrogen dominance
• PMS
• Hormonal acne
• Menopause transitions
Why Microgreens Instead of Mature Broccoli?
Microgreens are harvested at their peak nutrient density, typically 7–10 days after sprouting.
At this stage they contain:
• Higher enzyme activity
• More concentrated phytonutrients
• Greater antioxidant levels
This allows you to consume therapeutic plant compounds in smaller daily servings.
Detox Support in the Modern World
We are exposed daily to:
• Air pollutants
• Pesticides
• Plastics
• Heavy metals
• Hormone disruptors
Supporting the body’s detoxification pathways through nutrition helps the liver process and eliminate these compounds more efficiently.
How to Use Detox Microgreens
Add fresh to:
• Smoothies
• Salads
• Wraps
• Eggs
• Juices
• Grain bowls
Best consumed raw to preserve enzyme activity and sulforaphane formation. Can be frozen and added to soups, pasta sauces or smoothies as well.
Farm Transparency
Our broccoli microgreens are:
• Grown indoors in controlled environments
• Cultivated in regenerative soil
• Hand harvested at peak nutrition
• Free from pesticides and herbicides
Freshness and nutrient density are at the core of every tray we grow.
