| 0:07.9 | 7, 2020. In this Q&A we cover topics on all things broccoli sprouts and sulfuricane, including |
| 0:15.5 | the minimum daily dose of sulfuricane that has been shown to provide health benefits. Where |
| 0:20.4 | Dr. Fahee gets his broccoli seeds from. Whether adding ground mustard seed to cooked broccoli |
| 0:25.8 | increases sulfuricane. When to consume broccoli sprouts or sulfuricane supplements after being |
| 0:31.4 | exposed to air pollutants. How long health benefits of sulfuricane last and how frequently they can be |
| 0:37.4 | consumed. Whether sulfuricane helps enhance the excretion of heavy metals and pesticides. |
| 0:43.9 | How sulfuricane increases glutathione in the plasma and brain. Effects that persist for at least |
| 0:49.2 | three months in a continuous consumption scenario. Sulfuricane in the context of cancer prevention |
| 0:55.6 | versus cancer therapy. The potential benefits of sulfuricane for Alzheimer's disease. |

| 1:38.9 | safely grow your own broccoli sprouts at home. It is beautifully illustrated and if you want to |
