A member asked:
Could you tell me if flaxseeds increase or decrease estrogen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Flaxseeds: Although Lilian Thompson, PhD, an internationally known flaxseed researcher from the University of Toronto, says she wouldn’t call any of the health benefits of flax "conclusively established." Some studies have suggested that exposure to lignans during adolescence helps reduce the risk of breast cancer and may also increase the survival of breast cancer patients -- but this is as yet unproven.
