DIM

Short answer

We found no documented interaction between Citrulline and DIM in the sources below. That isn't proof the combination is right for you: check each one's cautions, and ask your pharmacist if you take medication.

Citrulline

What it is: An amino acid the body makes. The kidneys turn most of it into arginine, and then nitric oxide.

What the research says: Research on it as a performance supplement is limited and mixed.

Cautions

  • There isn't enough research to know whether it's safe; some people report stomach discomfort.

DIM (diindolylmethane)

What it is: A compound formed from vegetables like broccoli and cabbage, sold for estrogen balance.

What the research says: It changes how estrogen is broken down, and lab studies suggest anticancer effects, but human data are limited. There's no evidence for 'detox' claims.

Cautions

  • Not for pregnancy, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, because of possible hormone effects.
  • Rare reports include vision problems after very high use, and rash.

Medicines to check

  • Birth control pills: check with a clinician first
  • Many prescription drugs processed by the liver: DIM may make them less effective

Always check with your doctor or pharmacist before combining supplements, especially if you take medication, are pregnant or nursing, or manage a health condition.

Stop Guessing Your Dosages.

Balancing dosages across multiple different bottles is risky, inefficient, and expensive. Taking too much of one can blunt the absorption of the other.

Holitro completely solves this. We combine synergistic ingredients into one perfectly dosed daily pack, scientifically formulated for maximum absorption.
