Metagenics Meta I 3 C promotes estrogen metabolism and activity. It is a naturally occurring compound in cruciferous vegetables. I3C supports healthy estrogen-sensitive tissues by promoting the formation of estrogen metabolites. May inhibit a variety of cancers.

Meta I 3 C is a unique, highly stabilized formula designed to promote healthy estrogen metabolism and activity with indole-3-carbinol (I3C), which provides a full spectrum of beneficial metabolites - including diindolylmethane (DIM).

• Supports the health of estrogen-sensitive tissues by promoting the formation of the beneficial estrogen metabolite, 2-hydroxyestrone.
• Supports the detoxification of estrogens, other steroid hormones, and xenoestrogens by enhancing the activity of enzymes involved in their metabolism and excretion.
• May be especially beneficial for women with estrogen-related health concerns.
• Choosing I3C allows for the entire spectrum of beneficial metabolites to be produced, thereby ensuring all the activity nature intended. Diindolylmethane (DIM) is just one of many metabolites.
• Specially combined with rosemary extract to reduce oxidation and packaged with a desiccant to reduce moisture—measures that help to ensure potency.
• IC3 may suppress the proliferation of various tumor cells including breast cancer, prostate cancer, endometrial cancer, colon cancer, and leukemic cells.
• May induce apoptosis.
• May inhibit DNA-carcinogen adduct formation.
• Helps suppress free-radical production.
• May inhibit proliferation of estrogen-sensitive breast cancer cells.
• May have a strong hepatoprotective (liver protecting) activity against various carcinogens.
• Initial clinical trials in women have shown that I3C is a promising agent against breast and cervical cancers.
