Eating more broccoli can effectively prevent asthma

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, say they have found a natural ingredient in broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables that helps prevent respiratory diseases such as asthma, allergic rhinitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
The polluted air, pollen nice ass , car exhaust, smoke, etc. that people inhale every day can produce highly oxidizing free radicals, causing damage to body tissues and causing respiratory diseases such as asthma. Sulforaphane is a phytochemical contained in cruciferous plants such as broccoli. It can scavenge free radicals by increasing the number of antioxidant enzymes in the respiratory tract. Researchers found that people who regularly ate broccoli increased the number of cellular antioxidant enzymes in the nasal and airway by two to three times.
The researchers asked 65 volunteers to eat green vegetable flowers and green grass buds each day for three consecutive days. Broccoli is the most abundant natural food containing sulforaphane, while alfalfa sprouts do not contain this compound, which serves as a placebo control. The experiment collected mouthwashes from nasal passages at the beginning and end of the study to evaluate the gene expression of antioxidant enzymes in upper respiratory tract cells. The researchers found that people who consumed 100 grams or more of cauliflower had a significant increase in antioxidant enzymes compared to the placebo group. In those who ate the highest dose of 200 grams of broccoli, the antioxidant enzyme GSTP1 increased by 101% gay dildo , and another key enzyme, NQO1 cock pump male masturbation toys , increased by 199%. Researchers believe that sulforaphane can increase the number of multiple antioxidant enzymes to protect against the effects of harmful substances on the respiratory system.
