Results show that the MMB extract fractions selectively induced immune cell activation and increased host-defense activity, including anti-viral effects. Data also provide a mechanistic explanation for the post-inflammatory induction of G-CSF and multiple other cytokines and growth factors involved in tissue repair. Subsequently, induction of anti-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1ra, help moderate and resolve the immune defense-induced pro-inflammatory reactions.

Oxidative stress plays a major role in the pathophysiology of cardiac disorders. SFN found in cruciferous vegetables is an indirect antioxidant that can activate Nrf2 and its downstream target genes to induce antioxidant effects. Animal and human experiments have identified substantial SFN-mediated protection from a range of CVD, including hypertension, atherosclerosis, I/R injury, diabetes, and diabetic complications (Table 1). The findings presented in this review indicate that SFN, a phytochemical isolated from extracts of an edible plant with a presumed low level of toxicity, protects against CVD. SFN could therefore contribute to the prevention of CVD. ( Sulforaphane Protects against Cardiovascular Disease via Nrf2 Activation - PMC (nih.gov) )
The potential cardiovascular benefits of dietary omega-3 fatty acids are well documented. For individuals who cannot achieve adequate dietary intake or require higher doses for triglyceride reduction, fish oil supplements are proven to be an effective alternative.

The potential cardiovascular benefits of dietary omega-3 fatty acids are well documented. For individuals who cannot achieve adequate dietary intake or require higher doses for triglyceride reduction, fish oil supplements are proven to be an effective alternative. Likewise, the initial studies of krill oil appear promising, offering the efficient delivery of omega-3 fatty acids in a smaller, more convenient capsule.
