SUPPORT FOR DETOXIFICATION, HORMONE METABOLISM, AND CELLULAR HEALTH‡
The glucosinolates in broccoli, including indole-3-carbinol and sulforaphane, help support healthy detoxification. BioResponse
DIM® provides 25 mg per serving of a highly absorbable form of diindolylmethane, an important metabolite of indole-3-carbinol.
These compounds promote healthy estrogen metabolism and cell cycle activity. Calcium-D-glucarate targets beta-glucuronidase
enzyme activity, promoting healthy hormone detoxification through the glucuronidation pathway. Lignans, such as 7-hydroxymatairesinol
(HMR), are converted in the body to enterolactone. Research indicates that dietary intake of lignans and healthy serum enterolactone
levels provide support for cellular, heart, breast, bone and cognitive health. Silymarin, alpha lipoic acid and n-acetyl-l-cysteine act to
support phase II detoxification enzyme activity in the liver and offer antioxidant support for cellular protection. Taurine, glycine and
methionine promote phase II detoxification pathways and healthy cell metabolism.‡
Dr. W's Comments: I like this for my patients that have disc issues – though it is useful for all types of skeletal pains and arthritis. Besides the amount of 2 herbs – boswellia and devil’s claw – that work great against inflammation in joints, there is grapeseed extract to improve circulation in those small arteries that go to your joints. The l-carnosine, alpha lipoic acid and grape seed extract all work to protect the disc against what are called glycation end products, or AGEs. I guarantee you will be hearing more and more about these AGEs. They are an important reason why you don’t want to grill your meat too intensely. AGEs often occur when a sugar links to a protein molecule during food preparation or cooking. For example, whipping sugar into egg whites will produce a lot of them. These AGEs stiffen up cells – whether they are in the kidneys, brain, blood vessels or joints.
