Duncan - further to our conversation about Estrogen metabolism & re-circulation & reabsorption

[Guest guest]

No I don't agree, Bonnie; Maybe the high fiber diet was increasing

bacterial growth? I'd google " estrogen metabolism " for some data. This

snip for example , " The results suggest that the intestinal bacterial

flora plays a significant role in estrogen metabolism " does not

indicate re-circulation but metabolysis.

In Dr. Ray Peat's book from PMS to Menopause - Female Hormones in Context

Page 7 (referring to the above) in answer to the question - " How can I get

my natural Estrogen level to be lower? " He says - " Raw carrots can help, by

preventing the reabsorption of Estrogen which has been secreted into the

intestine with the bile. "

That is what I was trying to say. Make sense?
