DIM

🧬 What Is Nutricost DIM?

Nutricost DIM (Diindolylmethane) is a hormone balance supplement designed to support healthy estrogen metabolism in both men and women. Each capsule delivers 300 mg of DIM, derived from cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and Brussels sprouts, with BioPerine® added to enhance absorption.

DIM helps the body convert “bad” estrogen (16α-hydroxyestrone) into “good” estrogen (2-hydroxyestrone), promoting hormonal equilibrium, acne reduction, and menopause or testosterone support.

Nutricost DIM is non-GMO, gluten-free, soy-free, third-party tested, and made in a GMP-certified facility in the USA.
