📰Could a broccoli sprout compound lower blood sugar?📰
⁠
Researchers have found that sulforaphane (compound found in broccoli sprouts), may help reduce blood sugar levels in individuals with prediabetes.

The study included 89 participants with raised fasting blood sugar, a key indicator of prediabetes. Participants were also either overweight or obese.

The participants were randomly assigned either sulforaphane or a placebo for 12 weeks. Both the researchers and the participants did not know who received which treatment.

The study found that participants who took the sulforaphane compound had a greater average decrease in fasting blood sugar levels in comparison to participants who received the placebo.
