Ive tried menopause supplements with soy and clover. Whats different about pomegranate?
The estrogenic compounds found in pomegranates are milder than those found in soy and clover. Pomegranates also contain rare compounds that are not found at all in soy or clover. The estrogens in soy and clover come from isoflavones, which are increasingly seen by scientists as a “two-edged sword” that can actually increase the risk of breast cancer. The pomegranate’s estrogenic compounds, in contrast, come from flavonols and flavones, which are not believed to promote any forms of cancer.
