The anti-aging nutrient that makes broccoli so awesomely healthy
Mitochondrial Biohack
Head Strong by Dave Asprey makes the case that optimizing your Mitochondria is the ultimate performance-enhancing Biohack because your Mitochondria are the fundamental energy generation mechanism that underlies everything else. From the book:
broccoli sprouts make a chemical called sulforaphane, which activates liver detox enzymes and powerfully protects your inner mitochondrial membrane. I take this one every day.
There’s just one problem— the sulforaphane that’s available online requires activation by gut bacteria that are not common, so you probably won’t see any benefit from it. You can either buy an enzyme-activated sulforaphane or make sure you eat a bite of raw radish or cruciferous vegetable (like a broccoli stalk) in order to have the right living enzymes in your gut to activate the supplement. I always eat a bite of my broccoli raw, (pp. 266-267)
RECOMMENDED DOSE: 10 mg sulforaphane daily with raw cruciferous vegetable or raw broccoli sprouts, or an enzyme-activated supplement TIME OF DAY: Anytime, on an empty stomach (p. 267)
Dietary sources
Broccoli — If you find broccoli boring I won’t hold it against you. You’re probably doing it wrong. I slathered it with Kerrygold butter, a bunch of turmeric, a sprinkle of pepper and salt, a dash of Cayenne pepper, a few cloves of garlic, Rosemary, mustard seeds, and a squeeze of lemon.
Abelard Lindsay on a Natural Stacks podcast also gave us a TIP: add ground mustard seed powder to cooked vegetables to help activate sulforaphane in your body

You may be interested in taking it as an infoceutical - a non-pharmacological, side-effect-free version of the supplement that takes advantage of the phenomenon of water memory - which is imprinted on water via quantum collocation and electromagnetism using this device...
Infocueticals typically have 1/3 or half the effect of the actual medicine being imprinted. If you're skeptical of Infopathy that's understandable, it's a game-changing application of a little-known scientific phenomenon. But I'd urge you to evaluate the scientific evidence (presented in my biohacker review) that downloadable medicine is no longer science fiction...
