Thanks, Lynn. I've added the link to a new folder on estrogen: Links > How Iodine Affects the Body > Hormones > Estrogen

Japanese women and estrogen levels study

Here it is:Serum oestrogen levels in postmenopausal women: comparison of Americanwhites and Japanese in Japan.http://tinyurl.com/7ljfpE1 levels were 47%, and E2 levels 36%, greater in the American women; these differences were only reduced to 43% and 27% after adjustment for the lower weight of the Japanese. These results were all statistically highly significant. (E1 is estrone and E2 is estrodial. Estrodial is the form of estrogen that is most bio-active in our systems and estrone is primarily produced from fat cells.)Lynn
