Poliquin - DIM 3C

Package Quantity: 90 Capsules

Diindolylmethane (DIM): 100 mg Plus Indole-3-carbinol: 50 mg and Bioperine: 5 mg

DIM has been shown to help regulate and promote a more efficient metabolism of estrogen, and an optimal ratio of estrogen metabolites.  DIM is thought to be responsible for the health effects of dietary Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C).

Cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli and kale, help protect against some cancers and environmental toxins. Among their beneficial nutrients, indole-3-carbinol (I-3-C) is one of the most important. It helps rid our bodies of toxins, may reduce risk for several cancers, and may even protect against the harmful effects of radiation.

In supplements, I-3-C is also available as DIM (3,3’- diindolylmethane). DIM is a metabolite of I-3-C, meaning that our bodies convert I-3-C into DIM.

Animal and lab studies show that both I-3-C and DIM stimulate detoxifying enzymes, helping to eliminate toxins and harmful forms of estrogen that can lead to cancer. These nutrients can also stop or slow development of cancer cells. So far, animal and lab studies have shown effects on breast, prostate, cervical, ovarian, pancreatic, colon, and lung cancer cells.

In one animal study, I-3-C prevented or reversed BPA-related prostate damage. In another, I-3-C reduced tobacco-induced lung cancer tumors. And another animal study found that DIM reduces damage from radiation by stimulating DNA repair.
