sulforaphane and Obesity

sulforaphane has been researched along with Obesity in 19 studies

sulforaphane: from Cardaria draba L.
sulforaphane : An isothiocyanate having a 4-(methylsulfinyl)butyl group attached to the nitrogen.

Obesity: A status with BODY WEIGHT that is grossly above the recommended standards, usually due to accumulation of excess FATS in the body. The standards may vary with age, sex, genetic or cultural background. In the BODY MASS INDEX, a BMI greater than 30.0 kg/m2 is considered obese, and a BMI greater than 40.0 kg/m2 is considered morbidly obese (MORBID OBESITY).

" Using a murine model of obesity-induced glucose dysregulated pregnancy, we demonstrate that NRF2 activation by maternal sulforaphane (SFN) supplementation normalizes NRF2-linked NQO1, GCL and CuZnSOD expression in maternal and fetal liver placental and fetal heart tissue by gestational day 17."8.31Sulforaphane induced NRF2 activation in obese pregnancy attenuates developmental redox imbalance and improves early-life cardiovascular function in offspring.

" The present study aims to test a dietary strategy, dietary supplementation with a high dose of vitamin D (VD) or its combination with sulforaphane (SFN) to inhibit intestinal inflammation and obesity-associated tumorigenesis."1.51The Prevention of a High Dose of Vitamin D or Its Combination with Sulforaphane on Intestinal Inflammation and Tumorigenesis in Apc ( Frederick, AM; Guo, C; Jin, Y; Li, J; Liu, Z; Wood, RJ; Xiao, H, 2019)
