IndoleGard contains BioResponse DIM™, a unique formulation containing pure diindolylmethane, an indole. Indoles are plant compounds with health promoting properties, found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower and Brussels sprouts. Diindolylmethane, or DIM®, has been shown to help regulate and promote a more efficient metabolism of estrogen, by supporting the body in metabolizing estrogen into more of the protective 2-hydroxyestrone rather than the proliferative 16-hydroxyestrone.* BioResponse DIM™ is a stable bioavailable form of DIM®, made possible through a proprietary delivery system. The formula is co-solubilized with phosphatidylcholine, and microencapsulated in starch particles.
Patented BioResponse DIM™ is ten times more potent than indole-3-carbinole (I3C).* I3C is highly unstable and has no biologic activity until it is converted to DIM®. Conversion of I3C takes place in the stomach and requires an appropriately acidic environment. In contrast to I3C, DIM® is highly stable, requires no conversion in the stomach, and is the most active cruciferous phytonutrient in promoting beneficial estrogen metabolism.* DIM® is often preferred by clinicians over I3C.
Suggested use: As a dietary supplement, 2 to 4 vegetarian capsules one or two times daily , or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.
