The incidence of ischemic stroke in the young is on the rise. With young stroke victims, providers must consider both typical risk factors and other rare causes. We present a case of a healthy, 38-year-old female military dependent who presented with an ischemic right posterior central gyrus stroke in the setting of a patent foramen ovale and supplement diindolylmethane use. This case serves as a reminder of the hazards associated with supplement use and the importance of a thorough investigation of etiology in medical cases of ischemic stroke in the young.
