Official Title: Broccoli Sprout Dose Response: Bioavailability and Effects on Air Pollutants
Study ID: NCT02656420
Brief Summary: This study will examine the extent to which lower doses of a broccoli-derived beverage enhance the detoxication of air pollutants excreted in urine as compared to an maximal dose shown to be effective previously.
Detailed Description: This is a 10-day placebo control Phase II broccoli sprout intervention to be conducted in Qidong, P.R. China.
