Li Sixian explained that another benefit of DIM is that it balances the ratio of good and bad estrogen in the body, which has been supported by evidence to prevent breast cancer. DIM increases the estrogen 2-hydroxyestrone, which is less likely to stimulate cancer, and decreases 16 alpha-hydroxyestrone, which is more likely to cause weight gain and cancer risk, because DIM strengthens the CYP1A2 enzyme in the liver, which will affect the body’s stronger estrogen conversion in a less harmful form.
Li Sixian pointed out that because estrogen is one of the hormones that promote fat accumulation, the most direct impact of estrogen balance is weight loss. Long-term exposure to an environment with excess estrogen will unknowingly accumulate fat. In addition, a better ratio of estrogen can improve some postmenopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes, and may also help with acne and gynecomastia.
Li Sixian said that in human studies, DIM has been proved to be helpful for the prognosis of breast cancer, and ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and colorectal cancer have been achieved in animal experiments, but the effect in humans still needs more evidence. support. DIM is also helpful for prostate health and can improve prostate hypertrophy and further canceration.
