SD DIM

   I am now 4 weeks out from Nationals and part of my Supplementation Line up is Anti A (blocks Estrogen) and DAA (increases testosterone). Reason being is estrogen is what causes women to hold more fat then men, and since I am trying to lean down for my show I want to slow that down. I also want to increase my testosterone which is what creates more muscle. Now this will not make me grow facial hair or look like a big bodybuilder but what is does is helps my body create more lean muscle tissue and burn more fat. This along with my diet and exercise is what is helping me reach the look I want on stage this year.
   Now that being said ....I am very excited about SD's newest addition to the line up, DIM. What is DIM you ask?
   DIM is a compound of Vegetables, Broccoli, Cabbage, Brussel Sprouts,  Cauliflower and Kale. Dim is a plant based compound that helps maintain healthy hormonal balance in the body and supports overall wellbeing. This is also beneficial for breast, uterine, cervical, prostate health and there are also many studies showing their anti cancer benefits as well.
Now how this works is Estrogen is broken down in the body into different metabolits. Each of these metabolites has a different effect on the body. Some metabolites are low estrogenic (good estrogen) and offer many benefits in the body and some are highly estrogenic (bad estrogen) which is not what we want. Estrogen is what gives women more fat and a high estrogen count can also lead to different forms of cancer.
  The accumulation of fat around the belly, hips and glutes is partly due to excess "bad estrogen" levels combined with falling testosterone levels. DIM is shown to help lower excess estrogen and promote the fat-burning 2 hydroxy metabolites. My problem area is my glutes and back of my thighs so in taking DIM with my other SD products (mentioned above) I am hoping to convert some of the "bad estrogen" to "good estrogen" thus tightening up my problem spots.  So with increasing my "good estrogen" this not only helps with my overall hormonal balance, increases my antioxidant activity, but it can also stimulate the breakdown of fat while encouraging muscle development.
  So to summarize.....DIM can be used at any age as part of a weight loss or strength training program. DIM helps promote a healthy hormone balance that in turn enables you to achieve peak exercise efficiency and healthy aging (don't we all want that!!). Hormone balance is what helps you resist aging, stay healthy and get the most from you exercise and weight loss efforts, which are all amazing things...

I have been stacking these 3 products together for my Nationals contest prep and I am really amazed with the results. I plan on continuing with DIM after my show to promote "good estrogens" and hormonal balance in my diet...
