Women today face a growing number of health issues, including the need to support gene structure in the breast. Detrimental factors such as the aging process, along with the daily bombardment of damaging environmental estrogen-like compounds, demonstrate the need to support a woman’s breast cellular structure.
A wealth of research shows that specific plant extracts can positively influence cellular status and remove some of the anxiety women face about maintaining a healthy balance of estrogens.
Two important metabolites that estrogen is broken down to in the body are: the “good” 2-hydroxyestrone and the “bad” 16 alpha-hydroxyestrone (highly estrogenic). Scientists have identified nutrients like indole-3-carbinol (I3C) that can tip the delicate balance of estrogens in favor of the good form. In controlled clinical trials, oral supplementation with I3C has consistently increased urinary 2OHE1 levels or urinary 2OHE1:16OHE1 ratios in women.1,2
Women seeking to proactively obtain hormonal balance can now take a phytonutrient-based formula that helps support healthy estrogen activity and detoxification.* Some of the active ingredients in the Breast Health Formula are:
- Phytoestrogens that function as selective estrogen receptor modifiers to help block certain estrogen receptor sites on cells, thus preventing bad estrogen from exerting its harmful effects
- Plant lignans that boost beneficial enterolactone levels and favorably alter estrogen metabolism
- Cruciferous vegetable extracts (such as I3C) that effectively increase 2-hydroxyestrone while reducing undesirable 16 alpha-hydroxyestrone
- Calcium D-glucarate to safely facilitate the removal of harmful estrogen from the body
- Vitamin D to restore healthy genetic regulatory switching to aging cells
