Nomio (broccoli-sprout isothiocyanate shots): claims and evidence

Concentrated broccoli-sprout shot delivering isothiocyanates (sulforaphane), which activate the NRF2 antioxidant pathway. The company reports a double-blind study showing roughly 12% lower blood lactate, about 10% lower oxidative stress, and faster training adaptation versus placebo, developed by researchers from the Karolinska Institute and GIH, the same milieu as the original beetroot-nitrate work. The acknowledged gap is direct evidence of improved race performance: a fall in lactate or oxidative-stress markers is not a demonstrated performance gain. Sources are company materials and journalism, not independent peer-reviewed performance trials; the product is new and commercial. Weak/preliminary.
