I recently read this article by Dr. Mercola:
http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2013/06/25/glyphosate-residue.aspx
In it is this quote:
"The researchers concluded that glyphosate is a xenoestrogen that is functionally similar to estradiol, the most potent human estrogen, and concentrations in the parts-per-trillion range had carcinogenic effects. Adding insult to injury—in light of the fact that more than 90 percent of soybeans grown in the US are genetically engineered (GE)—they also found that the phytoestrogen genistein, naturally found in soybeans, heightened the estrogenic effects when combined with glyphosate. "
The doTERRA Women's phytoestrogen complex has genistein in it. I wonder now if it's a good supplement to take? What are the alternatives for increasing my intake of phytoestrogens to combat xenoestrogens?
