Ultra I-3-C by Douglas Laboratories
Ultra I-3-C — provided by Douglas Laboratories, supplies significant amounts of indole-3-carbinol (I-3-C) in a proprietary blend of cruciferous vegetables for healthy hormone balance and cellular health. Indole-3-carbinol is a member of the class of sulfur-containing chemicals called glucosinolates, phytochemicals found in high amounts in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts. It functions as an antioxidant, stimulates natural detoxification enzymes, and supports normal hormone metabolism. Furthermore, I-3-C supports the function of healthy breast and cervical cells and has shown a promising ability to support prostate cell metabolism.*
In the stomach, indole 3-carbinol must be broken down into its active metabolite diindolylmethane, which also has similar health benefits. I-3-C supports healthy estrogen metabolism by promoting a healthy ratio of weak estrogens to strong estrogens in favor of the weak, less potent estrogens. It also induces phase II enzymes including glutathione S-transferase (GST). Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower offer protective sulforophane compounds known for their ability to induce protective detoxifying enzymes.*
INDICATIONS Ultra I-3-C may be a useful dietary supplement for individuals wishing to supplement their diet with indole-3-carbinol to support healthy estrogen metabolism.*
