Oestrogen imbalance is a major contributor to symptoms associated with abnormal tissue growth of the breast and reproductive system and unhealthy prostate glands. In fact, medical research shows these midlife concerns may not be due entirely to oestrogen itself, but to problems with oestrogen metabolism. Leading experts have discovered natural nutrients that help the body restore oestrogen balance. One such nutrient, diindolylmethane, actually helps maintain healthy oestrogen metabolism when it’s consumed in a highly absorbable form such as is provided by Radiance® DIM®.
Radiance® DIM® contains patented BioResponse DIM® complex providing 18.5mg bioavailable diindolylmethane, a phytonutrient found in cruciferous vegetables including broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower and kale. Unlike other plant nutrients such as soy isoflavones, diindolylmethane has unique hormonal benefits as it supports the activity of enzymes that improve oestrogen metabolism in the liver.
Scientific research shows diindolylmethane increases the level of “good” oestrogens - 2-hydroxy-oestrogen (2-OHE1) while reducing the level of “bad” oestrogens - 16-hydroxy-oestrogen (16á-OHE1).
Usage:
Indicated for men and women with a predisposition to oestrogen dominance. Also for women with discomfort around menstruation wishing to encourage hormonal balance.
Dosage:
Women: Two to four capsules daily with food
Men: Two to four capsules twice daily with food
Ingredients per capsule:
BioResponse DIM® complex 75mg
Precautions:
Not to be used in pregnancy or lactation. A harmless but noticeable change in urine colour may occur during usage. Caution is advised with drugs that utilise the cytochrome P450 detoxification pathway in the liver. In theory, DIM may reduce the effectiveness of oral contraceptives. Always ask your product supplier or health professional if there are any specific precautions regarding your use of this or any supplement.
