This is an article I bumped into yesterday, while searching for
safety concerns of I3C/DIM over the long term :
http://lpi.oregonstate.edu/ss06/indole.html
Since I'd started taking 100-200 mg of I3C/day, and know how I3C/DIM
work, it became obvious that saftety might become an issue, at least
long term.
Reason I'm posting this is :
1. I see Paul and Kitty take an LEF supplement containing both DIM
and I3C, however it's part of a multi-ingredients formula called :
Dual-action cruciferous vegetable extract with Cat's claw. Item 57
on Paul's supplements regimen spreadsheet.
2. While Paul and Kitty are taking I3C/DIM, although the amount of
I3C is higher than it's metabolite DIM. I know that Paul wouldn't
take anything he assess could harm his or Kitty's health. However,
after reading the above article from what I think is a reliable
source, I'm concerned about I3C's long term effects on potentially
causing cancer.
After you read the article, you'll see why. So my question is self-
evident ; it has to do with the long term use of either or both
I3C/DIM.
