Dr. Al Sears recommends 200mg to
400mg of both DIM and Indole 3 Carbinol
to help reduce the effects of
environmental estrogen on men. There
are prescription drugs available that
block the effects of aromatase (the
human enzyme that stimulates the
conversion of testosterone to
estrogen). The combination of natural
herbal products in this capsule have
been shown to be effective in
controlling the effects of aromatase.
The packaging suggests 1 capsule a day.
Dr. Sears recommends more - up to 400mg
of each ingredient daily.
DESCRIPTION: Ultra Indinol Plus
supplies significant amounts of
indole-3-carbinol(I3C) and
diindolylmethane (DIM) in a proprietary
blend of cruciferous vegetables.
FUNCTIONS: Indole-3-carbinol is a
member of the class of sulfur-containing
chemicals called glucosinolates. It is
found in high amounts in cruciferous
vegetables such as broccoli,
cauliflower, and brussel sprouts.
Indole-3-carbinol acts as an
antioxidant, can stimulate natural
detoxification enzymes and supports
normal hormone metabolism. In the body,
Indole 3-carbinol can be broken down
into diindolylmethane(DIM), another
indole compound that also has similar
health benefits. Cruciferous vegetables,
broccoli and cauliflower, offer
protective sulforophane compounds known
for their ability to induce protective
detoxifying enzymes.
INDICATIONS:
Ultra Indinol Plus may be a useful
dietary supplement for individuals
wishing to supplement their diet with
indole-3-carbinol and diindolylmethane.
Standardized Broccoli, Cauliflower
and Brussel Sprout
