Diindolylmethane from cruciferous vegetables supporting oestrogen metabolism

We rank DIM by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.

What it is

DIM, or diindolylmethane, is a compound found in cruciferous vegetables. These are vegetables from a specific family that includes broccoli, cabbage, and kale.

Why it's used

It is used to support oestrogen metabolism. This means it helps the body process and break down oestrogen, a primary hormone, in a more balanced way.

How it's made

To create the supplement, manufacturers extract specific precursors from cruciferous plants. These are then processed through a chemical reaction to convert them into the stable diindolylmethane powder used in capsules.

What it typically costs

This ingredient is generally mid-range in price. This is because the extraction and conversion process from raw vegetables is more complex than producing simple vitamins, but there is enough supply to keep it from being a luxury item.
