Broccoli pill to save your life - tablet to prevent thousands of stroke deaths

A PILL made from broccoli extract could prevent tens of thousands of stroke deaths each year, scientists have claimed.
Taken daily the potent, statin-like tablet packed with the healing properties of a naturally occurring wonder chemical could become a game-changing treatment.
Studies suggest the impact of a stroke could be signifi cantly reduced by sulforaphane – which is released when lightly cooked broccoli is eaten.
