Are DIM supplements safe?
The earlier research on these phytochemicals as a cancer preventive in animals used huge amounts of DIM for many months. Despite the continuous use of these phytochemicals in multiple generations of animals, no safety problems were noted. Recently, DIM was again shown to be safe when it was used successfully to treat chemically induced breast cancer. As with all fat-soluble nutrients, taking DIM with a light meal encourages absorption even more because this group of nutrients requires the activation of bile secretion from the liver to promote absorption.
