Estrogenic Chemicals May Be the Hidden Cause for Your Fat Gain and Other Disorders
Estrogen sensitive fat tissues are also called "stubborn fat" due to their high resistance to fat burning. Generally, not even diet or exercise can help remove this estrogen sensitive tenacious fat. Excess estrogen works in a vicious cyclical manner. Estrogen promotes fat gain, and the enlarged fat tissue produces more estrogen within its cells, which then promotes more fat gain, and so on and so forth. The only solution is to attack the core of the problem, which is excess estrogen.
Women and Estrogen
In a world which is overwhelmed by estrogen chemicals, women are more prone than ever to suffer from estrogen's adverse effects, which include stubborn fat gain, menstrual disorders, and increased risk for cancer.

Certain estrogen inhibiting compounds in food help destroy stubborn fat and also defend against cancer. How to defend yourself against estrogen and its related chemicals.
Cruciferous Indoles for a Healthy Estrogen Metabolism
Much epidemiological evidence shows that imbalanced estrogen metabolism, due to phytonutrient deficiencies caused by low vegetables diets, is associated with a high prevalence of estrogen related disease, such as breast, ovarian or prostate cancer . . . Supplemental use of diindolymethane (DIM), the most active cruciferous indole, can help restore and maintain a favorable balance of estrogen metabolites.
Estrogen Inhibitors - Overview and Science
It has been widely established that certain compounds in plants called flavonoids and indoles can exert various biological effects, including antioxidant, anti-carcinogenic, anti-estrogenic and modulation of sex hormones.
