Default DIM and Chromium users??

I've just been started on DIM and Chromium. Who here is taking either of these?? I'm quite keen to see how I react to them. I was wondering how everyone else went with these two and what reactions, side effects (preferably positive) anyone has had from them...

Hi Debbie!
I'm taking Chromium twice a day. I started off taking it once a day but didn't think it was doing anything, so I went to twice a day. I find that my cravings for sweets has gone down.
Don't know what the DIM is though.

Thanks Beth. I've already noticed a change in my glucose metabolism since taking it (two days) - my metabolism seems to have kicked up a gear... it'll take me a little while to realise exactly what's happening to me though. DIM is to get rid of the excess oestrogens, in particular the 'bad' type that can lead to cancer etc.

Ah, ok. Surprised I haven't heard of DIM before. Does it stand for anything in particular?

I might check into it after the holidays.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Thank you! Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you too :-)

DIM stands for diindolylmethane, but you can find it pretty easily when you do a search for DIM.

That's great. Thanks for DIM's full name. I'll Google it when I get back home.
