Effectiveness Rating: Diindolylmethane vs Fish Oil

The effectiveness rating is a measure of the supplements' ability to lower triglyceride levels. This rating answers the question of whether or not a supplement does what it claims. The evidence backing up fish oil to lower triglyceride levels is much better than the evidence backing up diindolylmethane. Fish Oil should provide positive results while diindolylmethane will not.

Confidence Rating: Diindolylmethane vs Fish Oil

Another factor to take into account when comparing supplements is the confidence rating. This rating is a measure of how valid each supplement's effectiveness rating is. Remember, the confidence rating is a measure of how much you can trust the effectiveness rating. This rating is based on how many studies are included in the database on a supplement's claims. Ideally, you want a high effectiveness AND confidence rating.

Fish Oil's confidence rating is higher than diindolylmethane's. This means fish oil's effectiveness rating from above is more valid. This does not necessarily mean that fish oil works better, it simply means the evidence (included in this database) backing up fish oil is more established.
