Description: Dr. Jed W. Fahey is a nutritional biochemist with broad training and extensive background in plant physiology, human nutrition, phytochemistry and nutritional biochemistry. He is the director of the Cullman Chemoprotection Center at Johns Hopkins. The reason I've asked him to join us today, in particular, however, is because he has been researching isothiocyanates like sulforaphane for over 20 years and is an exceptional expert in this arena. Dr. Fahey and his colleagues have been, in a big way, at the absolute center of what is a staggering amount of research on these very powerful compounds. There is hardly a topic which we can discuss in which he doesn't have an anecdote about a study he was involved in, or, in some cases, tribal knowledge that may not even be published but is nonetheless interesting and an important part of the story that is unique to his particular vantage point. ▶︎ If you have not seen my previous, extremely in-depth video on sulforaphane, a very important isothiocyanate, please do so: youtube.com/watch?v=zz4YVJ4aRfg 00:00:00 - Introduction 00:00:37 - Sulforaphane basics 00:06:42 - NRF2 pathway 00:10:40 - Other cruciferous vegetables 00:16:55 - Endogenous gut myrosinase 00:22:15 - Supplements 00:32:48 - Endogenous gut myrosinase 00:43:00 - Inhibiting H.
