Cruciferous vegetables, I speak for green health!

Indole -3- methanol is obtained by the decomposition of Brassica glucosinolates. Brassica glucosinolate is one of the glucosinolates, and glucosinolates widely exist in Cruciferae plants. Cruciferae foods such as broccoli, broccoli sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts can be decomposed to produce indole -3- methanol.

What are cruciferous vegetables?

There are many kinds of cruciferous vegetables, which can be divided into the following 6 categories: 1 Chinese cabbage: Chinese cabbage, Chinese cabbage, laver moss, red cabbage moss, etc; 2. cabbage: cauliflower, broccoli, bulbous cabbage, heading cabbage (cabbage), purple cabbage, etc; 3. mustard: leaf mustard, stem mustard (head mustard), root mustard (turnip), etc; 4. radish; 5. aquatic vegetables: watercress; 6. varieties of Chinese cabbage: rape, black cabbage, etc.

Often eating cruciferous vegetables, can play an anti-cancer effect. According to science and technology daily, researchers from Francis Crick Institute and other institutions in the UK have found through mouse experiments that cruciferous vegetables will release the chemical indole-3-methanol when they are digested in the intestine, which can activate a protein called aromatic hydrocarbon receptor. Aromatic hydrocarbon receptor is an environmental receptor, which can transmit signals to immune cells and epithelial cells on the intestinal wall, so that the body will not have an inflammatory response to bacteria living normally in the intestinal tract, thus reducing the possibility of suffering from colorectal cancer.

In addition, cruciferous vegetables can provide a variety of health protection for the human body in daily life. The people daily mentioned that cruciferous vegetables such as cauliflower and broccoli are rich in calcium, potassium, sodium, iron, and other alkaline elements. They are alkaline foods and play an important role in maintaining the acid-base balance in the body. China Women's daily added that if the intake of cruciferous vegetables increased by 10 grams per day, the carotid wall thickness would decrease by 0.8%. Other vegetable varieties did not show this correlation. Cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and Brussels sprouts have been shown to have the greatest benefit for the carotid artery.

Indole -3- methanol and cancer

Investigation of mechanisms by which consumption of Indole -3- methanol might influence cancer incidence focuses on its ability to alter estrogen metabolism and other cellular effects. Controlled studies have been performed on such animals as rats, mice, and rainbow trout, introducing various controlled levels of carcinogens, and levels of Indole -3- methanol into their daily diet. Results showed dose-related decreases in tumor susceptibility due to Indole -3- methanol (inferred by decreases in aflatoxin–DNA binding). The first direct evidence of pure anti-initiating activity by a natural anticarcinogen (INDOLE-3-CARBINOL) found in the human diet was claimed by Researchers in 1989.

INDOLE-3-CARBINOL induces a G1 growth arrest of human reproductive cancer cells. This is potentially relevant to the prevention and treatment of cancer, as the G1 phase of cell growth occurs early in the cell life cycle, and, for most cells, is the major period of the cell cycle during its lifespan. The G1 phase is marked by the synthesis of various enzymes that are required in the next (S) phase, including those needed for DNA replication.

Overuse of INDOLE-3-CARBINOL supplements in the hope of preventing cancer may be unwise, as the hormone balance should be tested (via a simple blood test) before regular consumption. Such caution is advised, due to its effect on estrogen levels (estrogen has a significant impact on brain function).

It promotes liver cancer in trout when it is combined with aflatoxin B1 and demotes metastasis.

About Dietotherapy

Food therapy is called diet therapy for short. That is to use food to affect the functions of the body in all aspects so that it can obtain health or cure diseases and prevent diseases. As the saying goes, we maintain our bodies by eating. It is generally believed that food is an edible substance that provides the human body with various nutrients needed for growth, development, and healthy survival.

In other words, the most important function of food is nutrition. In fact, Chinese medicine has long recognized that food can not only nourish but also cure diseases. For example, Zhang Xichun, a modern physician, once pointed out in the medical heart, reference to the west that food can not only cure patients, but also satisfy hunger; it can not only satisfy hunger, but also be palatable, and it can be used for symptoms, and the disease will gradually heal, that is, there is no other disease.

Our company can provide high-quality INDOLE-3-CARBINOL/Indole -3- methanol（700-06-1） powder and related derivatives.
