Horseradish

Horseradish is a root vegetable known for its pungent taste and odor. It has been used worldwide for thousands of years, typically as a condiment but also for medicinal purposes.

This root contains multiple compounds that may provide health benefits, including antibacterial and anticancer effects.

Some benefits of consuming our Horseradish capsules on a daily basis include but not limited to:

• Anticancer effects – Glucosinolates and isothiocyanates in this root vegetable may protect against cancer by inhibiting the growth of cancer cells, as well as promoting their death. Some horseradish compounds, such as sinigrin, may also act as antioxidants and fight cell damage caused by free radicals. What’s more, peroxidase, an enzyme found in this root, helps activate and boost a powerful anticancer compound that targets human pancreatic cancer cells.
