In this episode of The Human Upgrade, Dr. John Gildea and David Roberts from BrocElite join to discuss the powerful benefits of sulforaphane and NRF2 activation. You'll hear about the science behind sulforaphane, a potent compound in broccoli, and how it can boost your health by protecting your cells and enhancing detoxification.
Learn why eating broccoli and broccoli sprouts can be a game-changer for your diet and get practical tips on how to incorporate them into your meals. The discussion highlights the role of sulforaphane in supporting gut health and improving resilience to toxins.
Dr. Gildea and David Roberts explain the importance of NRF2 activation in promoting longevity and better performance. You'll understand how these mechanisms work to keep your body functioning optimally and how you can leverage them for better health. Tune in to gain valuable insights and actionable advice on enhancing your health with sulforaphane and NRF2 activation!

0:04.0 | You're listening to the human upgrade with Dave Asprey. |
0:10.0 | Today is a super nerd longevity muscle performance episode and it's because |
0:18.4 | we're going to talk about sulfurophane and NRF2 activation. It's a live interview which are my favorites here in Austin |
0:27.7 | Texas at my studios and if you're watching on YouTube or any of the video channels, you recognize that there's two guys here. |
0:36.5 | One of them is Dr. John Gilday, Johns Hopkins trained PhD, with only 60 scientific publications from 20 NIH studies so he's just getting going in his career. |
0:50.3 | He's an expert in cell culture and Exosomes which you've heard me talk about on the show before related to stem cells and things like that. |
0:59.0 | And he's the guy who figured out how to stabilize the sulfurofane compounds which you might have heard of, |
1:06.4 | especially if you read my longevity book called Superhuman. I talk a lot about NRF too. |
1:11.2 | Well, it's kind of an honor to have the people who did the work in the |
1:15.0 | labs and have done all the things that aren't in their papers. |
1:18.4 | So I'm going to get to go deep and you're going to get to participate and understand |
1:22.3 | what could you do for NRF2 pathways and what participate and of public health from Johns Hopkins, masters in biochemical engineering, and 20 years of public health |
1:35.9 | experience on three different continents. So we have some guys who are, well, we'll say very experienced in the field, and part of my job for you on the human upgrade is |
1:46.4 | to find people maybe who haven't written books and are deep in the trenches, but have deep knowledge that they can share with you that are going to help you make better decisions so you're more in control of your own biology. |
2:02.0 | And the company that they work with is called Brock Elite, |
2:06.3 | which is really the only way |
2:08.7 | to get the stabilized mix of things |
2:12.2 | that is shown to work in studies. So John and David, |
2:14.6 | welcome it's an honor to have you in the studio. Yeah, this is great. |
2:17.6 | Thank you Dave. Thanks for having us. All right. Should kids really eat their |
2:21.1 | broccoli? If so, why? |
