Today we’re going to talk about the potential benefits of sulforaphane for autism.

Sulforaphane is a natural chemical in cruciferous vegetables and other vegetables. Sulforaphane can be beneficial for other conditions as well, including:
• H. pylori
• HIV
• Hepatitis C and B
• SARS-CoV-2

People with autism have a low antioxidant capacity, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation. One of the lowered antioxidants is glutathione.

Lowered glutathione is also involved in conditions other than autism, including:
• COPD
• Alzheimer’s
• Parkinson’s
• Cancer
• Autoimmune diseases
• ADHD
• Bipolar disorder
• Schizophrenia
• H. pylori
• HIV

A certain protein called Nrf2 is the master regulator of all of the antioxidants your body makes, including glutathione. This protein also activates detoxification enzymes, helps regulate T helper cells, and helps protect against oxidation and oxidative stress.

Things that inhibit Nrf2:
• High-sugar diets
• Lack of sleep
• Stress
• Glyphosate
• Alcohol
• Smoking
• Toxins
• Medications
• Infections
• Gene alterations

Things that trigger Nrf2:
1. Sulforaphane
2. Selenium, cysteine, glutamine, and tryptophan
3. NAC
4. Glutathione
5. Prolonged fasting
6. Cruciferous and sulfur vegetables
7. Alpha-lipoic acid
8. Vitamins A, C, D, E, and zinc
9. Milk thistle
10. Exercise
11. EGCG (green tea)
12. Healthy gut microbes

    Also shown to reduce tumour growth in some types of cancer.

    • eyeYQ2 on April 2, 2023 at 1:11 pm

      YES!!🥦

    • Natalie Padar on April 2, 2023 at 4:52 pm

      Which types of cancer?

  2. Nep on April 2, 2023 at 10:21 am

    My daughter stutters and it on the spectrum and I am going to change her diet and increase her vitamin intake to see if that will help with her speech and stress! Thanks for the information ✨👏🏽🔥

    • Nep on April 2, 2023 at 4:15 pm

      @Cupkait Tank I’ve been on this roller coaster with her for awhile now and I don’t have the answers I need and she’s a teen now so I’m doing everything possible to help her so she can thrive! And … Thank you 😊

    • Nep on April 2, 2023 at 4:16 pm

      @Yondainc will do!

    • Elle Han on April 2, 2023 at 5:29 pm

      I have autism, and when I was doing keto my symptoms almost completely vanished. I was amazed that thats how life is supposed to be for other people. I only stopped keto because of a kitchen remodel which took a very long time so i couldnt cook. It’s very good for seizures too which is quite common for women/girls on the spectrum. Definately worth trying for your daughter. My main veg was broccoli too.

      P.s. some issues returned but it may be because I was not being as strict as before.

    • Sarah B. on April 2, 2023 at 6:47 pm

      I used to stutter when I was 5 or 6 … It went away somehow (by itself?) I also have autism but I wasn’t diagnosed until i was 48! I am from that lost generation of autistic girls from the late 70s early 80s. Never went to doctors or anything (my family didn’t believe in that) but I do recall my mother giving me these little pale pink B12 pills. Dont know if that was related to it going away or not. But it did go away. I also read that the stuttering can be a form of stimming.

    Thank you Dr Berg, can you please cover Oxalates in vegetables, I recently learned spinach is very high in Oxalates have eliminated it. Thank you for explaining the importance of meat like cod liver, I also added sardines, beef and chicken liver pate love them.

    The precursors for glutathione are:
    • Cysteine
    • Glutamate
    • Glycine

    • K on April 2, 2023 at 2:08 pm

      Why in this case glutamate is so important but monosodic glutamate is neurotoxic?

    • Jagannath A on April 2, 2023 at 4:09 pm

      is that glutamate or glutamine?

    • Jeli Schaefer on April 2, 2023 at 4:13 pm

      Glutamine is a non-essential amino acid that occurs as a protein building block in almost all animal and vegetable foods. Glutamates are salts of glutamic acid.

  5. Helene Vion on April 2, 2023 at 10:26 am

    One Dr Berg’s video a day keeps the doctors away 😊

    • GSmothers on April 2, 2023 at 3:21 pm

      I’ve been watching him daily for over 10 years, and I STILL learn so much from his live streams!

    • Yvonne Cortes on April 2, 2023 at 3:50 pm

      Imo a balanced combination of both is top notch 👍🏻👍🏻

    • Malik Aubrey on April 2, 2023 at 3:51 pm

    • Thuy Wu on April 2, 2023 at 5:52 pm

      Yes,you are right.

    • Saif Shaikh on April 2, 2023 at 6:45 pm

      @guy sumpthin That is very true.

  6. Natalie Padar on April 2, 2023 at 10:54 am

    My daughter is autistic and she went through a period of craving broccoli 🥦 We couldn’t figure out what was in it that she was craving so this is interesting.

    • Αgapy on April 2, 2023 at 6:32 pm

      @Natalie Padar Yes. Self healing and self adjusting.

    • Saif Shaikh on April 2, 2023 at 6:44 pm

      @jan smith Omega 3

    • taebee on April 2, 2023 at 6:59 pm

      i wonder if this is why i crave broccoli like crazy!

    • Andi Miller on April 2, 2023 at 6:59 pm

      I craved broccoli as a child too

    • Haitham on April 2, 2023 at 7:29 pm

      also Moringa Olifera herb helps flush out heavy metals, and in turn lessen the symptoms of autism, am an Egyptian pharmacist who’s into naturopahtic and holistic medicine too and I know some Egyptian academcians who have done a clinical trial on this and found out how effective Moringa is in autistics.

  7. David Hakes on April 2, 2023 at 10:55 am

    You are Incredible Dr. Berg, Better than ANY so called M D. I have ever known as far as giving a picture of what is happening in our own body. THANK YOU.

  8. Thixuan Levu on April 2, 2023 at 11:01 am

    • Dr. Eric Berg DC on April 2, 2023 at 11:25 am

      You’re welcome. Hope you are learning a lot here. Stay safe.

    • GSmothers on April 2, 2023 at 3:25 pm

      I watch his old live streams. So much info in those!

  9. General B on April 2, 2023 at 11:09 am

    Sulforaphane is definitely a game changer in my life as an adult male on the autism spectrum. I was curious if taking NAC would enhance its effectiveness. Because Sulforaphane seems to increase the synthesis of Glutathione levels. NAC is the precursor to glutathione. So I was curious if that would form a synergy between the two. I’m also taking Glycine. So I will report back over the next few months to let everyone know.

    After watching this video I might take Selenium too!!!!

    • balhazer on April 2, 2023 at 4:10 pm

      @General B you tested it & saw results in less than 40 minutes? (according to YouTube, he post his/her reply ~40min ago)

    • Jhakku Agadhi on April 2, 2023 at 4:15 pm

      @General B Thanks for elaborate comments with do much of information 🙏

    • Elizabeth Downey on April 2, 2023 at 5:23 pm

      What “symptoms” is he referring to, because there is a vast array of characteristics of autism. Does it improve communication skills? Motor Skills? Anxiety? Stemming?

  10. Pamela Shearer on April 2, 2023 at 11:29 am

  20. full scorpion on April 2, 2023 at 6:14 pm

    I have noticed a marked improvement in my social capacity since making sure i put broccoli sprouts microgreens in my daily salads for the last 4 months. I figured it was just a benefit of fastinghealthy keto! My ADHD is unchanged however. My doctor was in shock that i was talking so much when i went last week. Far less social anxiety with glycine and ashwaganda as well.
