How does one identify a good source of broccoli seeds? | Jed Fahey

Key players in the glucoraphanin variability in broccoli sprouts are the seeds from which the tiny plants germinate. Seeds house all the nutrients and protective compounds (such as glucoraphanin) the future plant will require as it sprouts and begins to grow.

In this clip, sulforaphane expert Dr. Jed Fahey describes some of the problems associated with choosing a good source of seeds for sprouting.
