The Smarter Food Company Ltd t/a BrocStar

The Smarter Food Company Ltd, trading as BrocStar, is a food and nutrition company that develops science-backed food products designed to improve metabolic health [1, 2, 4]. A spin-out from the Quadram Institute, the company focuses on utilizing bioactive molecules found in plants, specifically leveraging a proprietary, high-glucoraphanin broccoli strain known as GRextra [4, 6, 7, 8]. Their primary product is a super-broccoli soup, which is processed to retain high levels of glucoraphanin; when consumed, this compound is converted into sulforaphane, which has been studied for its potential to support metabolic processes and combat age-related metabolic decline [1, 4, 8].

By integrating this concentrated nutritional source into a convenient food format, the company aims to help individuals manage their health goals, including weight management and metabolic support [1, 4, 8]. The product was developed through years of clinical research and is intended to be consumed as part of a regular dietary routine [1, 4, 6]. The company operates from Norwich, England, and continues to invest in clinical and community trials to explore the efficacy of its super-broccoli products for addressing various health conditions [2, 3, 6, 8].
