Re: Mushrooms

Maouno,
The research that is currently available appears to demonstrate a benefit in eating mushrooms in conjunction with Aromatose inhibitors like Aromasin. I see no reason to exclude them from your diet and in fact would recommend that they be eaten frequently. If I have read your message correctly I note that you are vegetarian. Avoiding animal fats also gives you a benefit and probable reduction in breast cancer recurrence rates. Make sure you are getting good plant-based protein sources on a daily basis (beans, nuts, legumes, etc).

Let me know if you have any other questions or if I did not fully address your original questions. I am posting a link to one of the studies on mushrooms and aromatase below.
