                                According to the Linus Pauling Institute, isothiocyanates, including benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC), are biologically active compounds formed from glucosinolates found primarily in cruciferous vegetables. Benzyl isothiocyanate is particularly prominent in foods such as garden cress, Indian cress, and papaya seeds, providing a range of health benefits.
