A formulated food, especially condiment mustard, including crucifer seed or a glucosinolate-containing extract thereof, said seed being other than mustard seed. The glucosinolate is generally able to induce Phase 2 detoxification enzymes in murine hepatoma cells in culture, indicative of likely health benefits such as prevention of cancer, and may be one or more methylthioalkyl, methylsulphinylalkyl, methylsulphinylalkenyl or methylsulphonylalkyl homologues of propyl, butyl or pentyl glucosinolates. Crucifer seed of Cherianthus cheiri, B. oleracea var Italica, Raphanus sativus, B. rupestris, B. villosa, a genotype of Iberis spp., a genotype of Alyssum, a fodder radish cultivar Crail or Neris, or a salad radish cultivar French Breakfast or Snowball may be employed. |
