This is the information that I have (mostly from Dr. Gregor's web site

and YouTube channel, http://nutritionfacts.org). The cancer fighting factor in

broccoli in made by two enzymes that occur in two separate parts of the cell.

Enzymes are destroyed by heat so cooking would deactivate the the ability to get

the sulforaphane from the cooked broccoli. That is unless you do one thing, cut

up your broccoli into small pieces and let it sit for about 45 minutes before

you cook it (so the two enzymes get a chance to introduce themselves). That way

at least some of the healthful factors would be made available to you. If you

want sprout patties made with broccoli sprouts and want to be safe, snip them up

with a kitchen scissors 45 minutes before you make your patties. Since there are

some people who won't eat raw broccoli and will only eat it cooked if you melt a

gallon of cheese on top, maybe you will be able to get a little sulforaphane

into their diets.
