University Of Queensland Researcher Offers A Greater Incentive To Eat Your Greens

Is this researcher stupid, or what?
"UQ PhD candidate and nutritionist Christine Houghton is set to investigate whether broccoli could help in the fight against diabetes...

Ms Houghton is currently trying to find out exactly how much sulforaphane is produced in 500mg of encapsulated broccoli sprout powder.

Using this encapsulated broccoli sprout, in 2010 she hopes to start a clinical trial for patients with impaired glucose tolerance."
Not only does the research have nothing to do with real broccoli, but if stroke, hypertension, heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, osteoarthritis and more are not enough to get the fat to eat fewer Calories (ostensibly a result of more veggies), then what makes this fool think that her research into ersatz broccoli will inspire more veggie consumption?
