Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is designed to determine whether Asians who are especially sensitive to alcohol exposure can be protected by boosting their activities of an alcohol disposing enzyme. This will be accomplished by administering broccoli sprouts that are rich in an agent that increases protective enzyme activity. The test system involves applying alcohol patches to the skin and measuring skin redness.
