Organic Broccoli Powder

What is organic broccoli powder?

Organic Broccoli Powder is crafted from freeze-dried whole florets of Brassica oleracea grown on certified organic farms. Low-temperature processing preserves ≥2.0% glucosinolates (including glucoraphanin), ≥0.5% sulforaphane potential, and ≥25% dietary fiber. This nutrient-dense powder delivers concentrated cruciferous benefits for functional foods, supplements, and detox formulations.
