I was told to go on Tamoxifen but decided to go on Flax Seed Oil instead. From all the research I did on Flax Seed, it naturally binds the Estrogen, which is what Tamoxifen is meant to do. Apparently, it is the Lignans in the Flax Seed that does it. Every time I found found something on Flax Seed Oil related to BC, I read good things. I now drink a TBS every evening of Barlean's Flax Seed Oil (Highest Lignan).

I take my TBS straight, since there really isn't an aftertaste. It's worth it.

Has anyone heard anything differently on this? I want to be kept up-to-date.
