KAITSEB NAHA TERVIST

Mitmed uuringud näitavad, et Sulforafaan võib pakkuda kaitset UVA ja UVB põletike, päikesepõletuse ja nahakahjustuste eest. 
Sulforafaan on tugev antioksüdant, mis aitab leevendada nahapõletikku.
Põletik on seotud paljude nahahaigustega ja on peamine põhjus enneaegse vananemise ilmingutele ning võib muuta naha välimuse tuhmiks ja väsinuks.

MÕJUTAB VANANEMISPROTSESSI

Autofaagia on keha viis kahjustatud rakkude asendamine uute ja tervete rakkudega.
Autofaagia peamised eelised on selle vananemisvastased omadused ning on tuntud kui keha vananemisprotsessi tagasikeeramise viis ja nooremate loomine. Autofaagia on paastumise üks peamisi eeliseid tervisele.
Uuringud on näidanud, et sulforafaan soodustab autofaagiat kogu kehas.

PÕLETIKUVASTANE

Põletik on keha reaktsioon erinevatele vigastustele, kuid mängib ka olulist rolli mõne kroonilise haiguse puhul.
Põletik on vananemise üks põhjuseid ning selliste haiguste aluseks nagu näiteks vähk, diabeet, südamehaigused, depressioon ja dementsus.
Uuringud näitavad, et sulforafaan vähendab erinevaid põletiku markereid, mis mõjutavad meie tervist, energiataset ja üldist heaolu.

6 , 7 , 8 ,9 , 10

SOODUSTAB MÜRKAINETEST VABANEMIST

Uuringud on näidanud, et Sulforafaan suurendab detoksifitseerimise teise faasi ensüüme, mis aitavad organismil eemaldada kantserogeene ning muid mürkaineid, näiteks pestitsiidides leiduvaid.
Detoksifitseerimise kohta võid rohkem lugeda siit blogist.
Sulforafaani kaitsefunktsioonid aktiveerivad signaalmolekuli NRF2, mis suurendab rakkude võimet kohaneda mitmesuguste keskkonnamürkidega ning ellu jääda.
Sulforafaan aitab kehal näiteks benseeni eemaldada, mis on üks hullemaid mürkaineid (autode heitgaasid, sigaretisuits ja õhusaaste).

11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15

RASVUMISE JA KAALUTÕUSU VASTU

Köögivilju sisaldav dieet on üks peamisi soovitusi kehakaalu reguleerimiseks, kuna need sisaldavad vähe kaloreid ja on toitaineterikkad.
Uuringud on näidanud, et sulforafaan suurendab pruuni rasvkude (“pruun rasv”) hulka, mis aitab kaasa kehakaalu langetamisele.
Sulforafaan suurendab ka leptiini reageerimisvõimet, mis vähendab nälga.

16 , 17 , 18

REGULEERIB KOLESTEROOLITASET

Uuringud on näidanud, et Sulforafaan vähendab LDL (“halva kolesterooli”) taset ja suurendab HDL (“hea kolesterooli”) taset.

19 , 20 , 21

REGULEERIB VERESUHKRU TASET

Sulforafaan aitab säilitada tervislikku veresuhkru taset.
Sulforafaan aitab ka 2. tüübi diabeediga inimestel vähendada vere glükoosisisaldust.

22 , 23

KAITSEB SÜDAME TERVIST

Uuringud on näidanud sulforafaani kasulikku mõju südame ja veresoonkonna tervisele ning inimestel, kes tarbivad piisavas koguses sulforafaani on madalam südamehaiguste risk.
Positiivne mõju tuleneb sulforafaani mõjust “halvale kolesteroolile” ning selle põletikuvastastest ja antioksüdantsetest omadustest, mida peetakse südame ja veresoonkonna haiguste riskifaktoriteks.

24 , 25 , 26 , 27

AKTIVEERIB ANTIOKSÜDANTE

Sulforafaan on kaudne antioksüdant. See suurendab rakkude antioksüdantset võimekust vähemalt 2 mehhanismi abil.
Uuringud on näidanud, et sulforafaan kutsub esile teise faasi detoksifitseerimisensüüme ja aktiveerib olulisi antioksüdante nagu näiteks glutatioon ja SOD.

28 , 29

VÄHENDAB RISKI JA AITAB KAASA VÄHI RAVILE

Uuringud on näidanud, et sulforafaan võib vähendada meestel eesnäärmevähki haigestumise riski ja vähi progresseerumist.
Sulforafaan võib vähendada naistel rinnavähki haigestumise riski.
Ühe uuringu tulemused tõid välja, et sulforafaani tarvitanud suitsetajatel oli madalam risk haigestuda kopsuvähki. Hetkel on käimas täiendavad uuringud sulforafaani mõjust kopsuvähile.
Teine uuring on näidanud, et sulforafaani tarbinud inimesed elasid põievähi üle suurema tõenäosusega kui need, kes tarbisid sulforafaani vähe või üldse mitte.
Sulforafaan kaitseb ülitähtsat vähivastast geeni (p53). P53 geen on praegustes vähi ennetamise ja ravi uuringutes kesksel kohal. Selle ülitähtsa geeni kaitse näitab sulforafaani potentsiaalselt väga olulist rolli mitmete vähkide ravis.

30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36

LEEVENDAB AUTISMI SÜMPTOMEID

Uuringud on näidanud, et sulforafaan võib oluliselt leevendada autismi sümptomeid nii täiskasvanutel kui lastel.
Sulforafaan võib aktiveerida geene, mis kaitsevad rakke põletiku, oksüdatiivse stressi ja DNA kahjustuste eest, mis on seotud autismiga.
Hetkel on käimas rohkem uuringuid sulforafaani seosest autismispektri häirega.
