Broccoli: a natural ally for horse vitality

Broccoli: a natural ally for horse vitality

Broccoli is not just a vegetable: it contains a powerful bioactive molecule, sulforaphane, widely studied for its ability to activate the body’s natural defense systems.

What science shows

A study published in the World Journal of Gastroenterology (Yoshida et al., 2015) demonstrated that broccoli sprout extract:

• Stimulates detoxification enzymes in the liver.

• Boosts glutathione, the body’s key antioxidant.

• Helps reduce the impact of oxidative stress in animal models.

These findings confirm that natural compounds in broccoli support the body’s protective and balancing functions.

Relevance for sport horses

Sport horses exposed to intense training or competitions often face fatigue and oxidative stress. Supporting their natural defense mechanisms is essential to maintain vitality, well-being, and performance.
