Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C) is a natural compound found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, and kale. It is formed when these vegetables are chopped or chewed, leading to the breakdown of another compound called glucosinolates. I3C is known for its potential health benefits, particularly in supporting the body's detoxification processes and promoting hormonal balance. Research suggests that I3C may have anti-cancer properties, particularly in relation to breast and prostate cancer. It is believed to influence the metabolism of estrogen, which can help reduce the risk of hormone-related cancers. However, more studies are needed to fully understand its effects and therapeutic potential.
