Unlock Longevity & Healthier Ageing
Your metabolism powers your life, providing the energy you need to live, grow and thrive. Maintaining it brightens your future - boosting longevity by supporting your whole-body health at its most fundamental level.
Looking after your metabolism means living well for longer
Getting older is unavoidable – but slowing down, getting sick and suffering from age-related health conditions doesn’t have to be.
We now know that our metabolic health plays a major role in ageing – explaining age’s huge impact on our health, and opening up new avenues to staying well for longer.
We’re entering a new era of metabolic medicine, where your age in years is less important than your age on the inside. You really are only as old as you feel!
Repairing and maintaining our metabolic health offers an opportunity to stay well for longer, and to spend more time in our later lives celebrating – rather than suffering.
What is my 'metabolism'?
Your metabolism is a chemical process that’s constantly running inside every cell in your body.
It provides you with energy and all the biological building blocks (like proteins and fats) that you need to live, grow and thrive.
Our metabolism works very well when we’re young, but tends to become less and less efficient over time. This ‘internal ageing’ process is one of the main things which undermines our health as we get older.
How does it affect my health?
Our metabolism is absolutely fundamental to our health and wellbeing.
When it’s not functioning well we’re more likely to feel the effects of age – from lacking energy and vitality or putting on weight more easily, through to developing arthritis, or suffering from health concerns like high blood sugar, blood pressure or cholesterol levels.
Also known as ‘metabolic syndrome’, this greatly increases our risk of developing conditions like diabetes, dementia or arthritis, suffering from a heart attack or stroke, or being diagnosed with cancer.
How do I repair my metabolism?
Certain activities (such as exercise, cold showers or visiting a sauna) activate genes which repair and maintain our metabolism. This is thought to be why they are so good for our long-term health & wellbeing.
There are also natural bioactive compounds found in broccoli (especially one called sulforaphane) which activate these same genes, and so can help to restore our metabolic health and slow the ageing process.
Our super-broccoli is ~5x richer in sulforaphane than a standard broccoli, which is what makes it so special!
Good metabolic health supports longevity via:
A healthy metabolism supports lower blood sugar levels by altering our sugar profile, reducing insulin resistance & aiding weight loss.
A healthy metabolism supports weight loss by encouraging our body to burn more fat & to lay down less new fat, and by reducing our cravings for food.
A healthy metabolism supports our cholesterol balance & boosts heart health, which can reduce the risk of a heart attack or stroke.
A healthy metabolism makes our body hostile to cancer cells, reducing the risk of common cancers like breast & prostate.
Joint Health
A healthy metabolism helps to reduce inflammation in our joints, which can help reduce pain & improve joint function in arthritis.
Brain Health
A healthy metabolism helps reduce inflammation in our brain, reducing the risk of conditions like Parkinson’s or Alzhimer’s.
Meet GRextra
Our metabolic marvel
So we’ve spent decades creating a super-broccoli. But what makes it so special?
Broccoli naturally contains bioactive molecules (such as sulforaphane) that activate genes in our cells which act to produce natural antioxidants, fight inflammation and help to repair our metabolism.
The problem is, broccoli only contains a small amount of these molecules, so eating enough to see health benefits has always been tough… until now.
Our unique super-broccoli GRextra can deliver ~5x as much sulforaphane as standard varieties – unlocking the power of broccoli like never before.
Backed by decades
of high-quality research
We’ve been working on healthy ageing since the 1980s.
That means our products are grounded in more than four decades of scientific research, all of which points to one clear answer – that sulforaphane could help us stay well for longer.
Digesting so much science can be a challenge, so we’ve created a simple flyer which captures the most important and exciting science on the benefits of sulforaphane for living well as you grow older – so you can see it all for yourself.
Plants are better than pills
So why go to the hassle of creating a super-broccoli, rather than just creating a supplement?
Well, we believe that plants are better than pills – and for good reason. Functional foods like our super-broccoli don’t just contain one active ingredient, but several – alongside a range of vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre that work together to bring additional health benefits.
Designed for you
Introducing our SuperSoup
Made in minutes and with no added nasties, our super-broccoli SuperSoup is a convenient and tasty way to reap the benefits that our super-broccoli can offer.
Each bowl is such a powerful source of sulforaphane, and research shows that eating just one bowl a week can help give you the boost you need.
Start looking after your metabolic health today, and take your first step towards a healthier future.
