Glucosinolates & Sulforaphanes: All About Skin Care

In the last week we have learned about Sulforaphane's ability to support the healing and maintenance of our largest organ: our skin.  

An exciting research study showed promising results of reversing aging skin! Actually strengthening and thickening the skin which of course helps with wrinkles and firmness (Petkovic et al., 2022). 

We also saw that Sulforaphane can support the treatment of psoriasis and reduce the inflammation and patches of red skin (Du et al., 2021). 

Next week we will take a look at a large research on Sulforaphane and radiation therapy, which is very encouraging! 

Enjoy.
