Abstract in brief

  • The study investigated whether consuming supplements from broccoli (rich in glucoraphanin) and garlic (containing alliin) leads to the accumulation of bioactive compounds like sulforaphane and alliin in the human prostate tissue, which may contribute to its protective effects against prostate cancer.
  • Results showed that sulforaphane levels were significantly higher in the prostate tissue of men who took the broccoli supplement, suggesting a direct accumulation, while no significant difference was observed for alliin levels in the prostate tissue of men who took garlic supplements.
  • This indicates that dietary intake of broccoli can increase beneficial compounds in the prostate, potentially supporting its role in prostate cancer prevention, whereas garlic’s alliin did not show the same tissue accumulation in this study.

In our group's latest publication, in which I have been put as a co-author, we identify the accumulation of broccoli bioactives and not garlic bioactives in prostate tissue from men with prostate cancer. Please have a read @TheQuadram @BBSRC @PCFnews https://t.co/n6v1Vs7LF1
