The new and improved Broc Shot - get your daily dose of sulforaphane!

Jun 14, 2023

Allow me to introduce to you the new Broc Shot! Introducing the SACHET! Broc Shot’s are now more sustainable + affordable. Each carton comes with 30 individual sachet servings of Broc Shot. I’ve been posting about Broc Shot for months since I take one every single day, and a lot of you have tried it as well and the only negative feedback I ever received was on the packaging, how it used to be too much plastic to throw away each day! Well, that’s gone now! Now we can still take our daily shots, but in a more sustainable way - they found a sustainable solution. 

To activate just tear, pour the formula into your Broc Shot shaker, add water or juice, and drink! No fussy formula and just one powerful ingredient. There is 15mg of Sulforaphane from 100% whole broccoli sprouts in each shot. No extracts, seeds or stabilized sulforaphane.

- Broccoli sprouts contain sulforaphane. The Broc Shot has one ingredient - high-quality broccoli sprouts. Sulforaphane addresses the 3 Key Pillars of Wellness: 

1. Gut health

2. Inflammation

3. Detoxification 

Within the first days of regular use, sulforaphane is known for activating specific cellular repair pathways that help your body to heal damage within the gut lining and helps restore the conditions required for the growth of healthy gut bacteria¹. These important changes can contribute to improved regularity and digestive effects occurring within the first week of use.

Improved bowel regularity is usually the first sign that Broc Shot is beginning to work. You’ll probably notice your regularity improve after only a few days, but as your gut adjusts, there’s a small chance that you may experience some mild gassiness and increased urges to go. These effects are similar to what you'd experience from a pre or probiotic and typically subside within 2-3 days.

Sulforaphane vs Laxatives

The most common form of relief for constipation are laxatives and over-the-counter (OTC) medications that are a temporary solution. Sulforaphane works to address the root causes of constipation to get things moving and help keep you regular longer term.

Sulforaphane helps with collagen production making your hair, nails and skin glow from the inside out! 

I have also listed broccoli sprouts as the top cancer-fighting and cancer-preventing food on the planet because of it’s rich compound sulforaphane. It’s been studied for over 30 years and has proven to be effective in reducing or destroying all cancer cells. One study showed how Sulforaphane decreased human breast cancer cells, and reduced the size and number of primary mammospheres by 8~125-fold and 45%~75%, respectively. And it’s not just breast cancer cells broccoli sprouts can reduce, it’s all types of cancer cells.

The Broc Shot is scientifically superior. Don’t be fooled as not all sulforaphane products are created equal. In fact, most don’t produce sulforaphane at all! Most on the market are extracts without sulforaphane or were synthetic (aka stabilized). Broc Shot takes a number of steps to ensure that each dose provides a consistent yield of no less than 15mg of sulforaphane (SFN).

Broc Shot ensure quality and proof is in their seed selection. Their process begins at seed selection which is a 20-fold variation in the bioactive in a broccoli sprout. The seeds they use have a higher sulforaphane yield than one could buy at a store or typically grow at home.  Their selection process includes tests done at the seed level to help yield a consistent amount of at least 15mg of sulforaphane from approximately 12-15 grams of our fresh sprouts, being that they are the highest quality/yield seed.  For reference to ingest 15mg of SFN from a grocery store / or homegrown sprouts, you would likely need to eat about 200-400 grams of sprouts. Broc Shot is potent with health benefits!

The sprouts are grown to 3 days old and then are dried and milled to make the broccoli sprout powder. Broc Shot sprouts are never freeze-dried. While freeze-drying is considered by many to be the superior drying process for plant materials, for enzyme-based plants, it is destructive and so it is not appropriate for cruciferous plants. They also never use extracts or synthetic sulforaphane. Their sprouts are NON-GMO and grown hydroponically, a process that combines hydroponic + pesticide/herbicide-free cultivation systems. They don't use any agricultural/environmental chemical pesticides or herbicide residues at any stage of their process.

To let you in on the manufacturing process Broc Shot use facilities that are HACCP-certified + SQF certified (globally recognized Food Safety + Quality standards). They are compliant with GMP standards and registered with US FDA + TGA (Australian FDA).

They test at multiple points during growing and manufacturing, including testing at seed level to determine which seeds will yield a strong sulforaphane level as well as third-party test each final batch to confirm it yields no less than (NLT) 15mg of sulforaphane.  They also test for chemical residue + heavy metal contamination, as well as to assess the microbiological profile. No product is released unless it passes their strict standards. 

More on their new packaging so you can be rest assured you contributing to waste: Broc Shot are excited to be leaders in packaging sustainability. Their sachets are derived from wood pulp, sugarcane and cornstarch. They are proud to be conventional plastic-free* and foil-free as well as certified BPI commercial compostable with 90% degradation in 6 months. Each Broc Shot starter kit includes a reusable, stainless steel shaker for a perfectly dosed shot.

BPI certification is North America’s leading certifier of compostable products and packaging. 

*current packaging is commercially compostable and includes an interior lining that is bioplastic from natural sources

100% Plastic-Free + Foil-Free. By Fall 2023, they will no longer be using bioplastics, therefore their packaging will be 100% plastic-free and foil-free, as well as both commercial and home compostable.

While they no longer offer their single-use shots, they are proud of our previous efforts to keep those out of landfills and waterways. Broc Shot was launched originally with a single-use patented dosing cap for a convenient, effective freshly mixed shot. With only 9-10% of plastics being recycled in the US, they partnered with Terracycle, to recycle them into long-use things we need like school desks, park benches, and playground equipment. With each order, customers received a pre-paid shipping label to send their empties at no cost to TerraCycle. This program successfully helped keep over 30k bottles out of waterways and landfills.

I am so excited for you guys to try the new sustainable Broc Shots! Join me every day and cheers with a shot of sulforaphane.
