Broccoli Supplement Fights Leukemia

Sulforaphane, a natural component of broccoli and
other cruciferous vegetables, killed cancer cells taken
from children with leukemia without hurting healthy
cells, in lab tests at the Texas Children's Hospital in
Houston. Other studies have shown that a diet high in
sulforaphane, which is also available in supplements
(also called broccoli extract), helps to prevent breast,
lung, prostate, colon, and bladder cancers.
