Is Flax powder/meal Estrogenic???

[chillin408]

Is Flax powder/meal..whatever the flax is called they sell at proteinfactory in MRP's. Does it have alot of those estrogen like compounds in it???? I'm natural and i eat vegtables in my diet,but i stay away from soy supplements. Would adding Flax powder work against me?

since i already eat vegtables im kinda weary about adding more soy products

No bro...FLAX IS NOT ESTROGENIC... you are completely off.... flax is actually a natural antiestrogen... if you want to battle estrogen naturally..

eat plenty of flax
plenty of fiber
take some tribulus.. (tribex 500) is the best
drink lots of water
and take ZMA at night
also lift heavy

later bro

i shouldnt have even posted,the only reason i did was because their was thread on the supplement board about flaxseed warning for woman and i think someone said it was estrogenic,they were right.i didnt realize how easy it was to just look up ,i thought it wouldnt show or would take forever,anyway unless if im misinturputing what i read flaxseed's are rich in phythoestrogens ,so that would probably mean flax meal/powder is high estrogen too


"Flaxseed contains high levels of phytoestrogens"
