Ep. 135 – Sulforaphane and Cancer Support: What Most Supplements Get Wrong

Most supplements don't actually work. There's a difference between taking something and your body actually being able to use it. When it comes to sulforaphane, that difference matters. Bioavailability, stability, and formulation can all influence what the body actually receives from a supplement. In this episode, I sit down with David Roberts, founder of Mara Labs, to explore the science behind sulforaphane and its potential role in cancer support, detoxification, inflammation, and cellular health. David shares the personal story behind Mara Labs and how his wife's cancer journey led him to investigate sulforaphane more deeply. We also discuss active sulforaphane versus its precursors, the NRF2 pathway, gut health, environmental toxins, and why understanding supplement formulation matters. Because it's not just about what you take. It's about whether your body can actually use it.   LINKS Guest Links: Instagram: @themaralabs Facebook: Mara Labs    Recommended Tools & Resources: Mara Labs (Sulforaphane Support) Mara Labs focuses on creating high-quality sulforaphane supplements designed to support detoxification, inflammation balance, and cellular health.
