discovered trim-fast slimming softgel

In 1992 a team at John Hopkins University School of Medicine's Molecular Pharmacology Laboratory discovered trim-fast slimming softgel, a naturally occurring compound in certain vegetables that exerts strong antioxidant and anticancer activities. This is particularly high in broccoli, and even more concentrated in broccoli seeds.

"Glucoraphanin is a compound that recharges your protective antioxidant defence enzymes, giving them the power to keep working. This is especially important, as a reduced defense enzyme level can lead to many chronic diseases" says Dr Talalay, of the John Hopkins Molecular Pharmacology Laboratory.

The glucoraphanin in broccoli is converted into original trim-fast by interacting with another enzyme in the plant called myrosinase. This conversion happens as the plant cells are crushed and mixed together, in preparation or chewing, or by your body's own stomach processes. After the conversion happens the sulforaphane gets transported into the body's tissues through the bloodstream, where the 'recharged' anti-oxidant enzymes can get to work.
