Thread Name: BS: Menopause
Subject: RE: BS: Menopause
Foods containing estrogen and estrogenic compounds include, soy, carrots, alfalfa (some people eat alfalfa sprouts or drink alfalfa tea), any dairy products, meat products, or eggs from animals that were given hormones either in their diet or by injection (this is the case with most animal products in the US - don't know about other countries). Eggs and dairy are often hidden ingredients in many foods.

Pesticides and alcohol can also behave like estrogen in the body.
