NSI Cruciferous Vegetables & DIM with BroccoSinolate -- 60 Capsules

NSI Cruciferous Vegetables & DIM with BroccoSinolate -- 60 Capsules

Helps maintain healthy hormone balance for both men and women, contributing to prostate and breast health. Also provides powerful antioxidant protection and detoxification support. How Does NSI® Cruciferous Vegetable Extracts & DIM with BroccoSinolate™ work? Rich in health-promoting vitamins and minerals, cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, bok choy and watercress also contain compounds called glucosinolates, which help maintain healthy hormone balance and support immune health. Glucosinolates are also believed to enhance activity of liver and intestinal enzymes essential to the body's natural detoxification process. Glucosinolates are transformed into indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and diindolylmethane (DIM) in the body. I3C promotes formation of a beneficial estrogen (2-hydroxyestrone), supporting the health of estrogen-sensitive tissues such as those of the breast and cervix. It also acts as an antioxidant, working to neutralize cell-damaging free radicals, protecting immune and overall-body health. DIM, which is the active metabolite of I3C, works to convert active estrogens into inactive estrogen metabolites. It also frees up testosterone bound to sex hormone binding globulins, promoting increased free-circulating testosterone in the bloodstream. Higher levels of testosterone are associated with a number of health benefits, including enhanced cardiovascular function, improved mood and increased fat-burning capability. Like I3C, DIM also functions as an antioxidant. NSI® Cruciferous Vegetable Extracts & DIM contains 400 mg of broccoli extract as BroccoSinolate™, a superior extract derived from mature broccoli plants stabilized and standardized to four to six percent glucosinolates. Each serving also delivers 100 mg of watercress (a good source of antioxidant vitamins A, C and E), 50 mg of IC3, 14 mg of DIM and 50 mg of rosemary extract (which serves as a natural preservative and offers with additional antioxidant support). NSI® Cruciferous Vegetable Extracts & DIM with BroccoSinolate™ is better because it:. Is a unique blend of cruciferous vegetables containing powerful compounds that may help balance hormone levels. Requires just a one-capsule daily serving for antioxidant protection, and more.  . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

"This is a great product for me. I started taking it 2 months ago and my mood swings and pms are very mild now. I really could tell a huge difference when I ran out of them because I was extremely moody again and I started eatting everything. (I didn't have all the food cravings during that time while taking this). Taking this product I fell so much better during "that time of the month". I would strongly recommend this product. Just give it time to work!!"

"I researched natural ways to manage eye floaters and this product was one of them. I have been taking this along with beta carotene and the floaters are essentially gone. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who is bothered by floaters."

"A very good antioxidant.

When it did not work on the PMS i still took it because of its antioxidant value. Watercress is a strong anti-oxidant, however while I was talking it I felt something different so I stopped taking. There is a different sensation I felt on one breast. Other than that I did not feel if it was helping or not. Sorry.
