Im not a nutritional expert, but beware of misunderstanding the estrogen family of chemicals.
Category:Estrogens
The phytoestrogen found in plants is is not the same chemical compound as the human steroid estrogen. In fact, the phytoestrogen from eating plants helps to block the effects of estrogen.
Corrections welcome.
I have the same bad reactions to the manufactured estrogen’s as I do to Black Cohosh or Wild Yam cream, so I avoid them. May have a lot to do with the fact I’m Hypothyroid and on Synthyroid. And SOY like grapefruit is a NO food for me.
