What are DIM supplements?
When you eat cruciferous vegetables, your stomach acid breaks down a compound called indole-3-carbinol to produce a new compound called DIM (Diindolylmethane)

Intriguingly, observational studies associate high cruciferous vegetable intake with a reduced risk of certain cancers, including breast and prostate cancer. While the exact mechanism is unknown, indole-3-carbinol is thought to be partly responsible

DIM® is a standardized, bioavailable form of diindolylmethane, a phytonutrient found in vegetables such as broccoli. As a patented formula, DIM® promotes women’s metabolism and cellular health.

Specifically, DIM may stimulate the production of a less potent, more beneficial form of estrogen known as 2-hydroxyestrone .

It may also help reduce the effects of a stronger form called 16 alpha-hydroxyestrone, which has been linked to weight gain and an increased risk of some cancers, including breast and uterine cancer

Additionally, DIM has been shown to inhibit an enzyme called aromatase, which converts testosterone to estrogen .

While cruciferous vegetables are the primary food source of DIM, you would need to eat several servings every day to reap this compound’s benefits .

As a result, people looking to treat a specific condition like acne or prostate issues may seek a concentrated dose in the form of a DIM supplement
