Article Synopsis
- Glucosinolates (GLSs) are compounds found in Brassica vegetables like cabbage, broccoli, and radish, which are linked to a reduced risk of colon and rectal cancer according to various studies.
- Some animal studies show that these vegetables can impact enzyme activity and DNA, hinting at protective mechanisms, though their direct effects on human health remain unproven.
- The variability of GLS concentrations in different plant parts and the influence of factors like cultivation and processing on their availability are important areas discussed in the research.
