We have so many great customers with great questions. Below are some of our frequently asked questions for our Organic Freeze-Dried Broccoli Sprout Powder and Capsules.
Q. Can I cook with the broccoli sprout powder?
A. According to the National Library of Medicine Myrosinase has been shown to be sensitive to heat, and studies have shown decreased isothiocyanate bioavailability in cooked versus raw.
Since our broccoli sprout powder is freeze-dried, it is still considered a raw product. We also third-party test our broccoli sprout powder to ensure the enzyme is active.
Q. Does freeze-drying diminish the active enzyme and compound?
A. No freeze-drying does not diminish the Myrosinase and Glucoraphanin. It’s a gentle freezing process that preserves the active nutrients.
Q. Do we test for Myrosinase and Glucoraphanin?
A. Yes. We use third-party tests to ensure the product's Myrosinase enzyme is active and Glucoraphanin compound is present. We are happy to share these test results upon request. Please us for the results.
Q. How many mg of Sulforaphane would you estimate are in a tsp of your powder?
A. We just test the amount of glucoraphanin and the amount of active myrosinase because that is what exists in the raw sprouts. Glucoraphanin turns into Sulforaphane when Myrosinase is present and water is added.

Q. How much Glucoraphanin in each serving?
A. For the Glucoraphanin, a recent lot tested at mg / 100 g, which at a 3.4 g serving size, which comes to 69.7 mg of glucoraphanin per serving.
Q. How many Glucosinolates per serving?
A. Total Glucosinolates tested 2,910 mg/100 g or 98.94 mg per serving.

Q. What’s the difference between KOYAH’s capsules and sulforaphane supplements?
I’m kinda laughing to myself as I write this post, because to most people who have never had hormonal issues or period problems, the acronyms I3C, DIM and SGS may as well be computer language or something!
But they’re not – they’re actually powerful compounds that can help support you on your quest for rockin’ hormones and amazing periods.
And, who doesn’t want that right?
In fact, if you have heavy or long periods, short menstrual cycles, pesky physical and emotional PMS symptoms like mood swings, and irritability, OR symptoms of high androgens (male sex hormones – testosterone being the most well known), like acne and redness or splotchy skin, and even weight gain then you should definitely keep reading.
So, what exactly are DIM, SGS and I3C?
Indole 3 Carbinol or I3C for short, is a compound found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, broccoli sprouts, cabbage, brussels sprouts, kale and cauliflower. It breaks down into the metabolites Diindolylmethane (DIM) and Sulforaphane Glucosinolate (SGS).
I am alwayssss telling women to eat more cruciferous veggies, in particular broccoli sprouts? These compounds are a big part of the reason why
