Indole-3-Carbinol is used for prevention of breast cancer, colon cancer, and other types of cancer. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has reviewed it as a possible cancer preventive agent and is now sponsoring clinical research for breast cancer prevention. It is also used to balance hormone levels, detoxify the intestines and liver, and to support the immune system.
Indole-3-carbinol is found naturally in vegetables such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, collards, cauliflower, kale, mustard greens, turnips, and rutabagas.
DIM is formed in the body from plant substances in cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and broccoli. It is involved in the liver's natural estrogen and testosterone balance in both women and men.
Scientific research shows that DIM increases the level of "good" estrogens (2-hydroxyestrogen) while reducing the level of "bad" estrogens (16-hydroxyestrogen). Underproduction of 2-hydroxyestrogen in women has been linked to PMS, acne, mid-life obesity, painful menstruation, recurrent breast pain, cervical dysplasia, fibroid tumors, as well as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus.
In men, obesity and chronic inflammation have been linked to underproduction of 2-hydroxyestrogen. DIM has been shown in scientific studies to reduce the risk of prostate and other hormone-driven cancers by helping the body make a better balance of hormones.
DIM promotes healthy estrogen metabolism, diminishing un-metabolized estrogen (estradiol). Elevated estradiol levels may lead to moodiness and breast pain in women and decreased sex drive in men. As DIM promotes more active metabolism of estrogen, the 2-hydroxy-estrogens (good estrogens) increase. These possess the unique ability to displace testosterone from SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) and set it free.
