About Glucobrassicin
Glucobrassicin is a glucosinolate found in broccoli, kale, cabbage and other brassicas. It is converted to indole-3-carbinol and related compounds upon hydrolysis, which have been studied for hormone-related cancer prevention.
No deficiency disease; not an essential nutrient.
No adverse effects from dietary amounts. Very high intakes of raw brassicas may affect thyroid hormone synthesis in iodine-deficient individuals.
None of the 1136 foods in the Nutriofia database currently have a recorded value for Glucobrassicin. This is a data gap to fill from published sources (USDA, CoFID, and analytical literature).
