What is your favorite Cruciferous Vegetables?

FACT:
Most important anti-estrogenic foods are the cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, and cabbage. The estrogen-inhibiting and modulating effects of cruciferous indoles may explain why crucifers have been widely regarded as a cancer- preventing food.

The active ingredients in crucifers—indole 3 carbinol, DIM, and indole 3 acetate—have shown substantial capacity to shift estrogen metabolism to produce beneficial antioxidant and anti-cancerous metabolites. Cruciferous indoles work as a first defense against excess estrogen. Studies reveal that cruciferous indoles can increase the ratio of beneficial estrogen metabolites, (2-hydroxy estrogens) over harmful estrogen metabolites, (16-hydroxy estrogens). It has been established that a high ratio of the chemicals 2-hydroxy to 16-hydroxy estrogens is associated with a low risk for estrogen-related cancer.

What makes the Anti- Estrogenic Diet different?

Q: My problem is stubborn belly fat. I’ve tried virtually every fat-loss program with no results. What makes the Anti- Estrogenic Diet different?

A: Most fat-loss programs today have failed to even address the problem of excess estrogen nor do they offer any solution for stub- born fat. Conversely, the Anti-Estrogenic Diet was designed to specifically address estrogen-related disorders including stubborn fat. The foods incorporated in the diet and estrogen-inhibiting supplements have demonstrated the capacity to exert anti-estrogenic effects. This helps create a metabolic environment that favors the breakdown of estrogen-sensitive fatty tissues, including areas that generally resist fat-burning.
