The Hormone Puzzle Increase Risk of Breast Cancer Protection Strategy Excessive Strong Estrogens (Estradiol E1 Increase Estriol E3 (Weak estrogen) with: Decrease Estradiol E1 and Estrone E2
Improve liver detoxification & elimination Stall puberty Sleep in a dark room
Increased C4 and C16 Estrogens linked
Make more C2 Estrogen, Less C4 and C16; Inactivate C4 Estrogen with:
1. Promote formation of C2 estrogens:
2. Assist Liver Detoxification:

Ground flaxseed (moderate) Genistein (soy) (weak) Zinc
Decreased SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Increase SHBG with:
Normalize cortisol, insulin, IGF-1, testosterone
Increased Number of Estrogen Decrease Number of Estrogen Receptors Receptors due to:
Xenoestrogens Hormone replacement therapy High Body Mass index
