Isocyanates in wasabi have potent anti-cancer properties. Isocyanates in wasabi are approximately 3,000 times more concentrated than in cabbage, a related cruciferous plant. Wasabi produces isocyanates (isothiocyanates) when grated or crushed, which are responsible for its characteristic sharp, bitter, and spicy flavor. Isocyanates are responsible for both the intense flavor and the health benefits of real wasabi.
