Broccoli is a member of the cabbage family, and is closely related to cauliflower. Its cultivation originated in Italy. Broccolo, its Italian name, means “cabbage sprout.” Because of its different components, broccoli provides a range of tastes and textures, from soft and flowery (the floret) to fibrous and crunchy (the stem and stalk). Broccoli contains glucosinolates, phytochemicals which break down to compounds called indoles and isothiocyanates (such as sulphoraphane). Broccoli also contains the carotenoid, lutein. Broccoli is an excellent source of the vitamins K, C, and A, as well as folate and fiber. Broccoli is a very good source of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and the vitamins B6 and E.

It is a different story for a transplant patient. It is a clear no, because everybody who has any type transplantation is on a heavy, heavy doses of immuno-suppressant drugs and that is a norm for anybody. And you don’t want to have the immune system suppressed by a medication and stimulated by glucan at the same time. So for this type of patient it is a straight no.

For auto Autoimmune diseases, it is a little more complicated. First of all there are about 80 different types of auto immune diseases and, and if you don’t know yet too, too much about them and most of all we don’t know what is causing the disease. But it is still the immune system somehow goes berserk and attacks our own body and we don’t want to stimulate it even more.

It is very few studies so we cannot be 100% sure if glucan can do any harm but in this case it is better to be safe than sorry
