Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
• Lower your risk of metabolic disorders, disease, and chronic weight gain
• Protect yourself against the estrogenic substances in the environment, products, water, and food
Learn how certain foods and herbs can protect you!
Estrogenic chemicals—known for causing the near extinction of various living species—are found in some of the most common foods we eat.
In this revolutionary diet book, Ori Hofmekler addresses the millions of overweight and obese individuals who have failed or are disappointed with other diets—those who suffer from yoyo dieting, weight gain rebounds, or accumulation of stubborn fat in the belly and other estrogen-sensitive areas. Focusing on our current over-exposure to estrogenic chemicals in the environment, foods, and water, The Anti-Estrogenic Diet provides a practical solution to fat gain, estrogen-related disorders (PMS, endometriosis, fibrocystic disease), and increased risk of common cancers in women and men (breast, ovarian, cervical, prostate).
Allowing you to still enjoy your favorite foods, the program is based on incorporating anti-estrogenic foods, spices, and herbs into your diet, while eliminating estrogenic foods and chemicals. Exposing dietary myths and fallacies, Hofmekler teaches readers that some foods commonly regarded as “healthy” may actually be harmful and vice versa.
Special chapters dedicated to readers with different needs and health conditions, recipes, a question-and-answer section, and a list of scientific references are also included in this valuable resource.

Definitely try to get this from a library or maybe browse it at B&N, it's just too repetitive to merit purchase if you can avoid it. Plus you can find plenty of info on the net about blocking estrogen in your diet. They should've taught us hormones in high school instead of what colour underwear Annie Frank wore.

This had fantastic information, but it is terribly written. Don't read this one in bed, you'll never make it through.

I've been following some of the recommendations in this book, in addition to Dr. William Wong's protocol in "10 Natural Treatments You Haven't Heard of Until Now," adding only one new supplement per week at the most for the past couple of months. Dr. Wong's protocol addresses fibromyalgia directly, and The Anti-Estrogenic Diet seems to be helping indirectly by balancing hormones (I'm 60). I'm also on an anti-candida diet and find that the two are fairly compatible and I'm able to combine them. The book has nice little summaries of each main point, so you don't have to search for basic info when you need to refer back.

Hi,
I was disappointed in this book for a couple reasons...
1) The same information was said over and over in each chapter without much additional elaboration. Ideally a concept is introducted at a high-level at the beginning of a chapter, and further detail of the concept is described elsewhere in the chapter. This is lacking in this book - it basically says the same thing over and over and over without more detail. This book could easily have been 1/2 the size if the un-needed repetition was taken out.
2) I don't recall seeing any mention of how plastics used for food storage and heating can also affect levels of estrogen in the body due to leaching. I think this is an important topic when talking about factors that affect estrogen levels.
If I could do it again, I'd get this from the library and not purchase it.

I have been researching and testing diets and weight loss programs for almost 20 years. They all work if and when you are ready. This one has very correct information about the estrogen issue, and it is well worth reading, even if you are not willing to follow the instructions to the "t". It will reshape your views on food and nutrition.
