Re: Supplement Help
Soy contains Genistein which is a weak estrogen. Genistein seems to be somewhat preventative of breast cancer because it occupies the estrogen receptor and prevents the stronger estrogen (estradiol) from linking onto the Estrogen receptor. Once you actually have breast cancer the effect of Genistein is not well known. In rats it seems to fuel ER positive breast cancers. Call the supplement factory and see how much soy is in each tablet and how much Genistein. The amount may be very small. Of course to put your minds more at ease it might be easier to avoid the soy made products altogether.
