BROCCOLI › to diminish estrogen and promote testosterone production

[BABY1]

TweetBroccoli contains a phytochemical known as indole-3-carbinol (I3C), which gets converted in the body to 3,3’-diindolylmethane (DIM). DIM reduces the strength of estrogens by converting them to weaker varieties in the liver. This diminishes estrogen’s effects on fat gain and water retention, and strengthens testosterone’s anabolic effects. Broccoli also contains the cancer-fighter sulforaphane, an antioxidant that forms from the inactive compound glucoraphanin when you chew your broccoli.
Food serving Shoot for about 1 cup or more of raw or steamed broccoli per day to deliver more than 100 mg of I3C, 1,200–4,000 mcg of sulforaphane, more than 80 mg of vitamin C and over 40 mg of calcium.
Supplement alternative To get extra estrogen-blocking effects, take an estrogen blocker such as 100–300 mg of androstenetrione twice per day.
