Bird,
Unfortunately, I don't have a good reference list for phytoestrogen content of foods. I do know that the phytochemical content of BroccoSpouts is much higher than that in full-grown broccoli. I would suggest contacting the company to see if they have done any testing. There was a great deal of research that went into that particular brand of spouts. In my opinion, the benefit from the Sulfurophane outweighs any risk.
