Some Beans Have PhytoEstrogens
Phytoestrogens bind to the same receptors that estrogen binds to, but phytoestrogens give a much weaker signal than estrogen. When weaker signals are sent, the body will often over-produce estrogen, which throw the entire hormonal system off balance. This can lead to several health issues, such as Alzheimers, bladder cancer, asthma and disrupted reproduction and infertility.
