See article keywords and concepts |  In fact, women who eat the most cruciferous vegetables have a 40 percent lower incidence of breast cancer. We have two different elements in there from the cruciferous vegetables like indoplex and indole-3-carbinol.
When the body breaks down estrogen in the liver, it will produce either a good kind of estrogen breakdown product or a bad kind. Just like we have a good and bad kind of cholesterol, we have a good and bad kind of estrogen. The indole-3-carbinol or DIM helps promote the good kind. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Although not considered cruciferous, asparagus and spinach are also "belly blasters" because they also improve "good" estrogen levels.
There are three kinds of natural estrogens: estrone (El), estradiol (E2), and estriol (E3). All estrogens tend to promote cell division, but unchecked cell division can lead to cancer. E2 is the most stimulating to breast and uterine tissues, and El is less so; thus, they might be called the "bad" estrogens. In contrast, E3 may be thought of as the "good" estrogen because medical studies have shown that it protects us from cancer. | | Belly Blaster 1 : cruciferous Vegetable les
Belly Blaster Z! Citrus Fruits Benefit to your body: d-Limonene / EAT 1 SERVING PER DAY.
A substance called d-Limonene, which is found in the oils of citrus fruits, has been shown to promote the detoxification of estrogen. Common citrus fruits are oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, lemons, limes, and tangelos. Research has also found that when male and female lab mice were administered an extract of d-Limonene, they lost weight.

See book keywords and concepts |  Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a phytochemical found in cruciferous vegetables, including cabbage, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and kale. I3C is converted in the stomach to a variety of compounds including diindolylmethane (DIM). It has been suggested that I3C can act in several ways to prevent abnormal cell growth and prevent tumor progression. Recent studies indicate that I3C has the ability to prevent and maybe even treat some common cancers, especially those that are estrogen related,71 by altering the pathway of estrogen metabolism. |
C. W. Randolph, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts | | Diindolylmethane (DIM)
Diindolylmethane (DIM) is a phytonutrient akin to the indole-3-carbinol (I3C) found in cruciferous vegetables. DIM has unique hormonal benefits. It supports the activity of enzymes that improve estrogen metabolism by increasing the levels of 2-hydroxyestrone—that is, the good estrogen. When taken as part of a healthy diet, DIM helps to relieve PMS symptoms and to promote fat loss and healthy estrogen metabolism.
In men, DIM also promotes its own metabolism. This means that it allows for greater testosterone activity. |

See book keywords and concepts |  By this, I mean, for instance, cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, kohlrabi, and kale; fruits such as strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, melons, and oranges; and legumes, nuts, and seeds. Better carbs also include whole grains like brown rice, quinoa, and steel-cut oats.
On the other hand, the worst kind of carbs are those nutrient-deficient sweet desserts and other processed "treats" that so many Americans crave— candies, cookies, cakes, ice cream, and soda. |

See book keywords and concepts |  The most common goitrogenic culprits are soybeans, soy products, and cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, Brussels sprouts, and broccoli. Interestingly, a goiter can be a sign that you're consuming too much iodine itself, from either food or supplements.
Goiters can occasionally signal thyroid cancer. In those cases the goiter is often large, hard, and may cause discomfort or pain.
SIGN OF THE TIMES
In the early 20th century, goiters were very common in a section of the United States referred to as the "goiter belt. |

Tips on Using Cauliflower
SELECTION AND STORAGE:
• Look for white or creamy-colored heads. They should be firm, compact, and heavy when lifted.
• Keep cauliflower refrigerated, stem side up, to avoid moisture buildup and rapid spoiling, preferably in the crisper drawer, for up to five days. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Cauliflower Helps With Breast Cancer
Cauliflower is a cruciferous family member that contains many of the same cancer-fighting, hormone-regulating compounds as its cousins, broccoli and cabbage. Cauliflower is one of the least popular vegetables, but this doesn't make it less important. Researchers have found it helps women to break down estrogen and produce estrogen-byproducts in a safe way, slashing breast cancer risk by 40 percent. It also helps ward off colon cancers. |
Tori Hudson, N.D.
See book keywords and concepts | | Indole-3-carbinol, found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cabbage, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and kale, has the potential to prevent and treat several cancers. Eating these foods alters estrogen metabolism in such a way as to reduce the carcinogenic metabolites of estrogen metabolism. Women with CIN 1 or 2 have altered estrogen metabolism and have higher 16-alpha hydroxyestrone, a potent carcinogen, and fewer 2-hydroxyestrogen metabolites than women with no abnormal cells of the cervix.23

This will encourage you to eat a variety of these life-giving foods, help you consume a rainbow of vegetables, and allow you to focus on low-glycemic-index items. One serving equals 1 cup of raw leafy vegetables (such as lettuce or spinach), Vi cup of raw nonleafy or cooked vegetables, or Vi cup of fresh vegetable juice.

A Serving of Food Lore...
Broccoli has been around for at least 2,000 years and was first seen in the region of Asia Minor now known as Turkey. |
C. W. Randolph, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts | | For instance, you have learned that cruciferous vegetables act as a catalyst to pull estrogen down a benign pathway to 2-hydroxyestrone, thus decreasing the levels of the carcinogenic 4- and 16-alpha hydroxyestrones, the "bad" estrogens. In addition, the supplement DIM supports the activity of enzymes that improve estrogen metabolism by increasing the levels of 2-hydroxyestrone, the "good" estrogen.
If you are on a more comprehensive BHRT regimen that includes bio-identical estrogen, it is essential that you stick to this plan. |
Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey
See book keywords and concepts |  Other dietary factors that may also affect the expression of genes important in apoptosis include organosulfur compounds from foods from the allium family, including garlic, polyphenols from green tea, chocolate, and chili peppers, and isothiocyanates from cruciferous vegetables [54].
VI. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
Understanding of the role of genes in cancer and in particular the role of the interactions of diet with genes in this disease process is a relatively new and rapidly expanding field of inquiry. |
Elaine Magee
See book keywords and concepts |  Whether it's the two vegetables high in viscous fiber (like eggplant and okra) or the cruciferous vegetables (like kale and broccoli) with all those anticancer organosulfur compounds or the carotenoid family (carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach, etc.) that offers a rich mix of phytochemicals, the message is simple: The more the merrier! Get as many vegetables as you can as often as you can.
Get your daily dark greens. Try to enjoy a dark green veggie almost every day. | | And studies that track the diets of people over time have found that diets high in cruciferous vegetables are associated with drastically lower rates of prostate and bladder cancer. For example, men who ate three servings of these vegetables a week reduced their prostate cancer risk by 41 percent, as reported in the September 2006 issue of Environmental Nutrition.
Lab studies suggest that many important phytochemicals in broccoli fight tumor growth at different stages of the cancer process, making it a true powerhouse vegetable. | | Color (the deeper the better)

See book keywords and concepts |  Estrogen in the male body is normally kept in check by weight-bearing exercise and several nutritional factors, of which three important ones are: cruciferous vegetables (cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, kale, brussel sprouts); lycopene vegetables and fruits, especially tomatoes; and zinc. The prostate gland contains the highest concentration of zinc of any organ in the body26 but inflamed prostates have one-tenth the zinc levels of normal prostates.27 Since men lose zinc in every seminal emission, it needs to be constantly replaced to avoid a deficiency. |
Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S.
See book keywords and concepts |  Since men have estrogen also, it stands to reason that broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables containing indoles should be helpful and protective to them as well. In addition, indole-3-carbinol has been shown to protect against the carcinogenic effect of pesticides and other toxins.
(NOTE: Indole-3-carbinol is available as a supplement, but I don't recommend it. Instead, I always recommend DIM, a metabolite of indole-3-carbinole that is safer and more reliable as a supplement and accomplishes the same thing. |
Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey
See book keywords and concepts | | Among these is indole 3-carbinol, found in cruciferous vegetables after they are cooked or crushed. There is evidence from studies of breast cells in culture that this compound can affect the estrogen receptor, ER-oc. It can alter the estrogen and the DNA binding regions of the ER, leading to decreased response to estrogen in estrogen-responsive cells [49]. Thus the interaction of this dietary compound with DNA may affect breast cancer risk because of the dampening of response to estrogen.
C. | | Although several case-control studies showed inverse associations with selected vegetables or vegetable groupings, including green and yellow-orange vegetables, cruciferous vegetables, and allium vegetables [44, 47, 59, 60, 62, 207-211], many others showed no significant associations [42, 45, 46, 57, 58, 61, 212, 213]. The findings from prospective cohort studies have been mostly null [49, 64-66, 76, 214-219]. The findings for legumes, a vegetable subgroup, are considered separately (discussed later), and the findings for tomatoes are included in the later discussion of carotenoids. |
