DIM is an indole phytonutrient (plant nutrient) found only in cruciferous vegetables. When broccoli or any other cruciferous vegetables are chewed, plant enzymes are released. Once these enzymes are exposed to stomach acid, a compound called indole-3 carbinol (I3C) is formed which, in turn, yields DIM.
