Estrogen is a hormone that is responsible for the growth and development of female sexual characteristics, although men also have a far smaller amount present in their bodies. The level of estrogen in the body rises when you
approach reproductive age; it’s responsible for causing the acceleration of metabolism, increasing lubrication of the vagina, increasing sex drive, boosting your mood, and promoting bone formation. As a result, a certain level of
estrogen must be maintained in order to maintain your health.
You may be one of the women who are estrogen sensitive, which means that their mental or physical health can be adversely affected by it. Metagenics’ Meta I 3 C is a nutritional
supplement that was designed to combat estrogen sensitivity. It does this by forming an estrogen metabolite called 2-hydroxyestrone, which improves the activity of enzymes that carry out the metabolism and excretion of the body’s
estrogen.
The main ingredient of Meta I 3 C is indole-3-carbinol (I3C); the supplement is named after the compound’s initials. I 3 C is used to promote estrogen activity and metabolism, protecting your body from disease. The
ingredients in these capsules are derived from cruciferous vegetables, such as Brussels sprouts, broccoli, and cabbage.
Other ingredients contained in Meta I 3 C include:
Rosemary extract—for reducing oxidation; this herb is combined with
substance called a desiccant to maintain dryness and retain potency
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose—ensures a convenient and accurate dosage of Meta I 3 C
Magnesium stearate—a lubricant for the capsules.
This 180-capsule bottle
of Meta 1 3 C from Metagenics should last about two months. The recommended dosage is one capsule twice daily with food, unless otherwise directed by a health care practitioner.
Metagenics creates innovative supplements that help
people overcome the symptoms of chronic diseases and maintain their health. Quality and research is paramount, and has been since the company was founded in 1983. All active ingredients in Metagenics products have been demonstrated

Vitamin review
By Cindy from Atlanta, GA on April 22, 2011
My Dr. recommended this product. I have been using it for 3 weeks. It will be interesting to see the results of my next check -up in order to tell how this vitamin is functioning. Thanks
I would recommend this item to a friend.
Couldn't live without my Meta I 3 C
By Cassandra from Vancouver, WA on February 28, 2011
My partner and I both take Meta I 3 C daily to help with processing of estrogen as recommended by our naturopath. Its made a world of difference with reducing flow during that time of the month.
Pros:
It works! So its worth the price and the occasional pill stuck in the throat.
Cons:
The pills often get stuck on the way down. Can't figure this out as I take many supplements daily and have never had this problem with any other supplement.
The price is high. It never goes on sale and I never receive coupons for it.
