DIM Provitas 100mg

DIM (diindolylmethane), in DIM ProVitas, is a phytochemical (plant nutrient) found in cruciferous vegetables. Among them are; Cabbage, broccoli, bok choy, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, kale, turnip greens, mustard, swede and rutabagas. These plants have been cultivated for thousands of years, and were originally used for their medicinal properties.

The connection between DIM, in DIM ProVitas, and hormones such as estrogen has to do with the similar characteristics of the two at the molecular level. DIM is not an estrogen or hormone, it shares the common characteristic of poor aqueous solubility. Like estrogen, DIM can only be metabolized by a special class of cytochrome enzymes located in cell membranes in the non-water parts of cells. The DIM contained in DIM ProVitas promotes its own metabolism. This particular metabolic pathway of DIM, and the enzymes involved, precisely overlaps with the pathway necessary for healthy estrogen metabolism.

What does DIM (diindolylmethane) do? When we supplement our diet with DIM ProVitas, it can shift the production of estrogen metabolites from the dangerous 16-hydroxy in favor of the beneficial 2-hydroxy metabolite. DIM supports estrogen balance by increasing the beneficial 2-hydroxy estrogens and reducing the unwanted 16-hydroxy variety. DIM has been shown to lead to the preferential formation of estrogen metabolites associated with healthy breast, endometrial and cervical tissue. This unique property sets DIM apart from other phytonutrients.

DIM (diindolylmethane) is combined with phospholipids, vitamin E and black pepper for enhanced absorption. PMS symptoms such as irritability, aggression, tension, depression, mood swings, water retention, and breast pain or swelling are common in menopausal women. An improvement in PMS symptoms was noted after initiation of absorbable DIM supplementation. These results suggest that DIM is able to correct estrogen imbalance in PMS.

Recommended intake: 1-4 capsules daily before a meal with plenty of water.
