22 Jul 2020 ---UK-based The Smarter Food Company has raised £1 million (US$1.25 million) to accelerate the development of food products with health benefits. A spin-off from the Quadram Institute Bioscience, its first product will be a vegetable-based soup containing glucoraphanin, a naturally occurring compound found in broccoli. Clinical data suggest that a single weekly portion of such a soup reduces elevated blood glucose, a significant risk factor for the development of Type 2 diabetes.
