What is Avmacol® Extra Strength
Avmacol® Extra Strength is a patented, sulforaphane-producing supplement that works in combination with Maitake mushroom extract (containing beta-glucans) to support your body's natural detoxification process better than sulforaphane alone.* Avmacol® Extra Strength provides glucoraphanin, also known as sulforaphane glucosinolate, and active myrosinase enzyme, which are the essential ingredients needed for sulforaphane production. Without active myrosinase enzyme, one may not be able to reap sulforaphane’s many health-promoting benefits.
How Maitake Mushroom Extract Works in Combination with Sulforaphane
The Maitake mushroom extract (containing beta-glucans) works in combination with sulforaphane to support your body’s natural detoxification process better than sulforaphane alone.* In addition, the Maitake mushroom extract found in Avmacol® Extra Strength provides the added bonus of immune support by promoting neutrophil function and natural killer cell activity.
The Science Behind Avmacol® Extra Strength
Translocation of NRF2 into the Nucleus Following Exposure to Sulforaphane and Maitake Mushroom Extract
Sulforaphane and Maitake Extract Boosts Select Phase 2 Enzyme Production Including NQO1 and HO-1
NQO1 Protein Expression in THLE2 Liver Cells
In control cells (left panel) NQO1 protein expression is indicated by the green staining. When cells are exposed to sulforaphane and Maitake (right panel), the level of NQO1 staining, representing the amount of protein, is increased.
HO-1 Protein Expression in THLE2 Liver Cells
In control cells (left panel) HO-1 protein expression is indicated by the green staining. When cells are exposed to sulforaphane and Maitake (right panel), the level of HO-1 staining, representing the amount of protein, is increased.
Who Would Benefit from Avmacol® Extra Strength?
We are capable of incredible things; and when our bodies get the support they need, the results can be amazing. Avmacol® unleashes the power of broccoli to help your body fight off toxin-related stress at the cellular level.

How does Avmacol® Extra Strength work?
How does Avmacol® Extra Strength work?
Avmacol® Extra Strength delivers glucoraphanin and active myrosinase enzyme, which are the ingredients needed for sulforaphane production, along with the Maitake mushroom extract (Grifola frondosa). This combination helps increase the production of Phase 2 detoxifying, thereby supporting the elimination of potentially harmful metabolites.* A good way to think about the mechanism of action of sulforaphane in our cells is as having the effect of turning up a “dimmer switch” which controls Phase 2 enzyme production in cells. The Maitake mushroom extract works in combination with sulforaphane to support your body’s natural detoxification process better than sulforaphane alone.
