Vitamin B6, B12 and folic acid act as co-factors for enzymes involved in oestrogen. metabolism. Femme Essentials also provides 100 mg of broccoli sprout powder (BroccoPlus™) per tablet. Glucosinolates are present in young broccoli sprouts at levels 10 to 100 times higher than in mature plants, making them a rich source of the most potent isothiocyanate, sulforaphane. Sulforaphane is involved in the clearance of reactive oxygen species.
