Ground flaxseed remove excess harmful estrogens from our body. It does so by binding them and removing them through our digestive tract so that it is not recycled through the liver again to deal with via portal vein. This prevents estrogen overload and the stimulation of this at the estrogen receptors. A great way to get more flaxseed into your diet is through baking. Here’s a great recipe to try at home.
