Did your doc MISS this “veggie” cancer-fighting therapy?
If you or a loved one has been hit with a CANCER diagnosis, you have no choice but to face the disease head on and FIGHT it with every possible weapon at your disposal.
Because cancer DOESN’T wait around!
So, your doc needs to attack it with everything he’s got!
He probably goes with chemo… radiation… or maybe surgery.
But there’s another option he may have MISSED.
It’s not grown in a lab… it doesn’t poison your body… and it doesn’t leave you with permanent scars.
It’s a proven, natural cancer-fighter that can actually BOOST the traditional cancer treatments your doctor has given you.
If you (or your doc) haven’t heard about it… today I’ve got the scoop that could help END your cancer.
Every time you eat cruciferous vegetables… like cauliflower or broccoli… you consume a substance known as indole-3-carbinol.
Your body breaks it down into another substance…
It’s called 3,3′-diindolylmethane, or DIM for short.
As a stand-alone, studies around DIM and cancer have found that it can help:
- INDUCE cancer cell suicide (a.k.a. apoptosis)
- SABOTAGE cancer cell reproduction
- BLOCK the spreading of cancer cells, and
- STOP on tumor growth by preventing the formation of new blood vessels in the tumor (a process called angiogenesis)
That’s all pretty darn good. But DIM does so much more…
Studies have found the DIM can help AMPLIFY the anti-cancer effects of certain chemo drugs!
Take a look at these findings…
In a 2009 animal study, DIM was shown to ENHANCE the activity of the cancer drug docetaxel against lung cancer.
Another study found that it made breast cancer cells MORE SENSITIVE to docetaxel.
There’s even some evidence that DIM might help tamoxifen work better for breast cancer patients, too!
And check out this ringing endorsement…
Researchers out of the Lombardi Cancer Center in Washington, D.C. found that DIM could help SHIELDnormal tissue from the harmful effects of radiation.
So, even if you’re on conventional cancer treatments, DIM can help them work BETTER… FASTER… and help you get off cancer drugs SOONER!
That’s a WIN-WIN-WIN in my book!
Not all cancer treatments are created equal… and specific cancers sometimes mean different treatment plans.
But if you’re going through cancer treatments (or someone you love) talk to your doctor or oncologist about DIM.
To beating cancer,
