Action of indole-3-carbinol

Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a bioactive compound derived mainly from cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, radish and cauliflower. 

Here are some of the main effects of indole-3-methanol:

1. Chemopreventive substances

Indole-3-carbinol is a tumor chemoprophylaxis substance that can be ingested through consumption of cruciferous vegetables. 

Studies have found that feeding mice a diet rich in indole-3-methanol can effectively prevent intestinal inflammation and the incidence of colon cancer .

2. Anti-tumor drugs

Indole-3-carbinol is also being studied as an antitumor agent. Although there is no ideal, highly effective and low toxic anti-laryngeal cancer drugs, 

indole-3-methanol can be extracted from cruciferous vegetables as a tumor chemopprophylaxis. 

In addition, indole-3-carbinol can inhibit the occurrence and development of a variety of tumors.

3. Treat myelosuppression

While treating cancer, indole-3-methanol or dimer 3,3 '-diindolethane can also prevent the decrease of white blood cells and even increase the number of central granulocytes, 

thus improving the chemotherapy effect of tumors, extending the survival time and improving the quality of life of cancer patients.

4. Increase white blood cell count after chemotherapy

Indole-3-carbinol is active in promoting hematopoietic function and can significantly increase the number of white blood cells after chemotherapy, 

especially the number of neutrophils.

5. Break down cancer-causing estrogen

Indole tricarbinol is able to break down carcinogenic estrogens associated with breast cancer, effectively blocking the synthesis of carcinogenes
