These metabolites are reported to have greater antioxidant activity than the parent lignan secoisolarciresinol diglucoside and also exert either weak estrogenic or antiestrogenic effect, depending on biological levels of estradiol.4, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14...

Sexual motivation and behavior decreased in male cynomolgus monkeys given either Depo-Provera (medroxyprogesterone acetate, MPA), which reduces androge...
In postmenopausal women, the increases in serum 17beta-estradiol induced by estrogen therapy were higher when consumed with 3.25 mg/day of boron compared with boron consumption of 0.25 mg/day.(Nielsen 1992) In nutritional studies involving postmenopausal females and men receiving boron with or withou...

For this rea...
A 12-week exercise program, for example, has been shown to improve estradiol levels in postmenopausal women, with anaerobic exercises potentially having a more substantial effect compared to aerobic exercises [171]. Further research is needed to investigate the specific effects of walking interventions...
A small study in postmenopausal women (n=14) reported no effect of maca (3.5 g/day for 6 weeks) on serum concentrations of estradiol, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, or sex hormone-binding globulin.(26) Similar findings were reported in a study in a Chinese population (n=...
Much of the interest in red clover originated from observations of positive health benefits derived from the use of soy products. Both soy and red clover are sources of isoflavones and have similar estrogenic activity shown in in vitro studies to be approximately 0.25% that of 17-beta-estradiol...
