Daikon radish & mustard seeds can enhance sulforaphane production | Jed Fahey

Описание: The conversion of glucosinolates to their cognate isothiocyanates via myrosinase-driven hydrolysis is not a direct path; rather, it occurs in a stepwise fashion, yielding a variety of intermediate bioactive compounds that can rearrange to form the final product. Several factors – such as gut pH and temperature, or the presence of iron – can influence whether the conversion process stops at the intermediate stage or continues to form the isothiocyanate. The myrosinase in daikon radish and mustard seeds are particularly effective at driving the formation of isothiocyanates, however, providing a culinary "hack" that favors isothiocyanate production. In this clip, Dr. Jed Fahey describes factors that influence isothiocyanate production.
