⚡️UNDERSTANDING MUSCLE GROWTH:
Muscle tissue grows in two ways as a result of strength training: 1. the existing cells in the muscle fibres grow and 2. the number of muscle cells in the muscle fibres grows. The latter is called hyperplasia: training induces stem cells in the muscle fibres to develop into fully grown muscle cells (@Suppversity).
💪🏽💪🏽BROCCOLI MAY INCREASE MUSCLE GROWTH:
Sulforaphane was found to stimulate the development of mesenchymal stem cells. Brassica vegetables, such as broccoli, may well provide our muscle tissue with more stem cells. This can translate to better recovery and growth (Zanichelli et al., 2012).
💥TAKEAWAY:
It appears that sulforaphane present in Broccoli may be able to augment and facilitate greater muscle growth potential.
