Degradace estrogenu v játrech
- Two steps Phase 1 and Phase 2 detox
- Takže ztukovatění jater bude v.s. také rizikový faktor a jakákoliv zátěž jater...
Phase 1
- estrogen into
- 2 hydroxy estrone (2OHE1)
- 4 hydroxy estrone (4OHE1)
- 16 hydroxy estrone (16OHE1)
- The most favorable is 2OHE1
- Other metabolites, 4OHE1 and 16OHE1 are associated with unfavorable growths of breast and uterine tissue, including cancer.
Phase 2 detox
- Metabolites are methylated
- Takže kyselina listová bude velice potřeba jako donor metylových zbytků...
- Prepared for excretion via the kidneys and bowels
- Drinking ample water, eating fiber, supporting microbiome health, and ensuring regular bowel movements
- Is so important to your hormone health
Diindolylmethane (DIM)
- Helps the body detoxify estrogen
- May help reduce the effects of excess estrogen.
- www.drphelts.com/our-blog/six-ways-to-combat-allergies-allergycure-chiropractor-10017-10016-new-york-ny-manhattan
DIM
- Short for diindolylmethane
- A metabolite of indole-3-carbinol
- Compound that can only be made from cruciferous vegetables
- Broccoli, cauliflower, and other cruciferous vegetables
- Exposed to stomach acid after chewing, indole-3-carbinol is created
- Then converted into DIM.
- DIM can be derived from food
- DIM supplements
- Skip the entire process of converting
- DIM
- Supports the body in producing more favorable estrogen metabolites
- Specifically 2-hydroxy estrogen (2OH).
- Can inhibit the conversion of testosterone to estrogen
- May help balance these two hormones.
- Potential hormonal health benefits for women — particularly in the case of excess estrogen
- DIM may do for women is improve estrogen metabolism.
- “estrogen dominance” can lead to a cascade of undesirable symptoms like
- Hormonal headaches,
- Breast tenderness,
- PMS...
- DIM works at the Phase 1 detox level
- Help your liver make the most favorable metabolite, 2OHE1
- Reduce the excess production of potentially harmful 4OHE1 and 16OHE1.
Studies on DIM
- Promise for breast health, acne, and reducing PMS
- Benefits in certain cancers
- Supports Phase 1 metabolism of estrogen in the liver, favoring 2OHE1
2-hydroxy estrone (2OHE1)
- Which DIM promotes over the problematic estrogen metabolite, 16 alpha-hydroxy estrone (16OHE1)
- 16OHE1 pathway
- Mastalgia (breast pain) may result
- May stimulate estrogen-sensitive cancer cells, like breast cancer.
A double-blind, randomized controlled study
- 150 Pharmaceutical researchers are taking note and testing indole carbonil-based formulations for mastalgia.
Randomized, placebo-controlled trial
- Tamoxifen (a treatment for hormone-receptor positive breast cancer)
- 150 mg of an oral DIM supplement
- Or a placebo for a 12-month period
- DIM increased the 2OHE1 ratio compared to the placebo with minimal adverse effects.
- In women taking tamoxifen, DIM promoted healthier estrogen metabolite production.
A pilot study showed that DIM is an effective estradiol modulator
- Estradiol is a form of estrogen
- Small sample of patients with thyroid proliferative disease ( cancer, goiter and adenoma)
- 300 mg of DIM daily for two weeks
- Urine analysis showed that DIM regulated estrogen metabolism in patients
- After two weeks of taking DIM
- Had more good estrogen metabolites
- Ratio of 2OHE1 (the more beneficial estrogen metabolite) to 16OHE1 (a metabolite associated with the growth of tissue) increased
- Increased levels of 16OHE1 may lead to a greater chance of thyroid proliferative disease.
- DIM may be effective at inhibiting aromatase.
- Aromatase is an enzyme that assists in the conversion of testosterone to estrogen.
- DIM can possibly prevent the excess production of estrogen
- DIM may also inhibit DHT
- Form of testosterone that is five times more potent than testosterone
- DHT is the form of testosterone associated with
- Prostate cancer in men
- Hirsutism (hair where you don’t want it) and acne in women.
DIM supplements 50–300mg / capsule
- Starting with a lower dose of 50-100 mg is often best to avoid headaches
- Cruciferous vegetables contain Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C), which is converted to DIM by the body.
- I3C is found in cruciferous vegetables, such as:
- Broccoli
- Brussels Sprouts
- Kale
- Cabbage
- Watercress
- Garden cress
- Mustard greens
- Horseradish
- Turnips
- Bok choy
- Kohlrabi
- DIM should be taken daily for at least 30 days
Interactions With DIM
- Diindolylmethane may help the liver work more efficiently
- High amounts of DIM may deplete sodium
- With diuretics, you might reach your limit faster
- DIM alone / + othrt estrogen supporting nutrients
- Best taken with a supplement that contains Phase 2 detox nutrients like
- Folate, B12, and magnesium
- Can help prevent headaches and other unwanted issues
- Having calcium d-glucarate available
- Can ensure your bowels are able to effectively move the estrogen metabolites created by the liver out of the body.
microbial dysbiosis
- Gut it is possible for an enzyme known as betaglucuronidase
Balance Women’s Hormone Support
- Modulating estrogen and estrogen metabolism,
- DIM may be useful for women struggling with
- estrogen dominance,
- PMS,
- Period problems,
- Perimenopause,
- Menopause
- May also help maintain breast health and could prevent painful breasts (mastalgia).

- PS: Když to funguje na kůži a podkoží, co by to nemělo fungovat na ztenčující se rohovku u keratokonu aj.
- PS: Když to funguje na degenerace podkoží obličeje, co když to bude analogické u lipedemu...
- CAVE: Pokud nějaký vitamín Vám pomáhá lokálně na kožní obtíže, stojí za to se zamyslet nad tím, jestli Vám náhodou nechybí celkově !!!
- Zdá se, že lipedem bude u velké části lidí spojen s poruchou kolagenu buď vrozenou nebo získanou a v kombinaci se špatnou stravou to už udělá své.
- Předpokládám deficit vitamínu A, K, D, E, C aj. ...takovou nějakou malnutrici z nadbytku prázdných kalorií, toxických a prozánětlivých látek, co urychlují degeneraci kolagenů a podkoží, včetně prozánětlivé bolesti na dotek s prosakem, a deficitem vitamínů a protizánětlivých prvků ve stravě a stavebních kamenů k obnově aktivních tkání...a další.
Rozcestník pro medikaci a doplňky při lipedemu
Dlouhodobé užívání rybího tuku
- Jeden z nejsilnějších protizánětlivých pilířů, který je potřeba mít v normě
- Index O3/6 ukazuje, zda je tělo nastaveno protizánětlivě či prozánětlivě na úrovni samotných buněčných membrán
- Jak na tom jste a zda potřebujete suplementaci rybím tukem / jinými omega3 mastnými kyselinami lze již i otestovat
- Např. BalanceTest
- Při deficitu je pak potřeba užívat rybí tuk v dostatečné dávce aslepoň 4-6 měsíců, při vyšší hmotnosti i déle
- Adekvátní dávky EPA a DHA celkem se pohybují dle hmotnosti člověka mezi 2-4 g/d
- V případě BalanceOilu 0,15 ml/kg/d
- Je důležité, aby konzumovaný rybí tuk nebyl kontaminován rtutí aj. v tucích rozpustných toxinů
- Omega 3 mastné kyseliny snižují proces jizvení, fibrozu, fibrotizaci, proalergické a autoimunitní a prozánětlivé reakce a celkově snižují míru prozánětlivého nastavení organismu
- živočišné omega 3 mastné kyseliny umí antagonizovat některé nežádoucí účinky bisfenolu A a rtuti v metabolismu tuků aj.
- Omega 3 mastné kyseliny podporují betaoxidaci v tukové tkáni
Ideální synergické kombinace
- Nalačno před užitím rybího tuku podat vitamín E 400 IU
- S rybím tukem současně pak podat vitamín D, A a K k zesílení protizánětlivého účinku
