The abundance of glucoraphanin in broccoli seeds suggests that consuming the seeds (rather than sprouting them) provides a better means of obtaining the end product – sulforaphane. But broccoli seeds are rich in erucic acid, an omega-9 fatty acid that may be harmful to heart tissue and is classified as a natural toxicant. Interestingly, erucic acid is a component of Lorenzo's oil, an oil used to treat certain rare neurological disorders. Although prudence is warranted when consuming broccoli seeds directly, their bitter taste may provide a natural deterrent to copious consumption. In this clip, Dr. Jed Fahey discusses the pros and cons of sprouting and whether broccoli seeds contain erucic acid.
