Study Explores Broccoli Powder Supplementation in Exercise
A recent Lithuanian Sports University study examined short‑term broccoli powder supplementation in 17 healthy men performing an incremental bike‑ergometer test. Participants consumed 10 g of broccoli powder (0.5 % mustard seed) for 14 days, which significantly increased urinary sulforaphane, confirming absorption. However, the supplement did not alter plasma malondialdehyde, blood lactate, exercise performance, or muscle‑power recovery. Researchers note the modest exercise intensity and short duration may have masked potential benefits, recommending trials in older or metabolically stressed groups.
