5% Nutrition Core Series DIM is a comprehensive formula that contains 325 mg of 3,3’-Diindolylmethane (DIM). However, we've enhanced this formula further to include ingredients that will assist DIM in being more effective or better absorbed once taken!DIM for Men If you’re on or ending an aggressive supplement program, no doubt you’re concerned about hormonal balance. Getting your testosterone levels back to normal is a priority. Another priority is controlling estrogen. That’s because excess levels of estrogen in men can lead to several unpleasant problems such as gaining fat around your stomach and “man-boobs”. It also tends to leave you with a lack of energy and slower muscle growth. The body naturally converts excess testosterone to estrogen by a process called aromatization. Normally, this is a good thing because it helps keep your hormones in balance. However, when you have higher than normal testosterone levels, your estrogen levels also increase. What happens when you end your cycle? Your natural testosterone levels are low and take time to return to normal. Yet estrogen is reacting to the higher levels of test you had during your cycle. That means estrogen is way too high. DIM for Women DIM helps a woman’s body create the right balance of “good estrogens” to “bad estrogens”. Briefly, estrogens are a group of hormones that occur naturally in both men and women. Both men and women need a certain level for normal health. As estrogen breaks down in the body, its metabolites can either help or harm a woman’s health. That’s why they are called “bad” and “good” estrogen metabolites. The “good” estrogen metabolites have high antioxidant activity. The “bad” estrogen metabolites lead to unwanted body composition changes. That means we want to increase the proportion of good metabolites to bad metabolites. DIM supports this process.(1)
