No Fish Liver Oil. Contains Flax seed oil, Evening Primrose Oil, Canola, Black Currant oil, and pumpkin seed oil. Works great and absolutely no fishy after taste.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Most of what I am hearing is from Dr. here are some cut and pastes. ======================================================= Men should not consume soy as it acts as an estrogen mimic. The same is true of the phytoestrogens found in flax supplements. The doctors who wrote this need to learn the endocrine differences between males and females. You can drink flax seed oil all day, and it will not elevate DHEA and EPA enough to make a difference. It will, however, raise your risk of prostate cancer, and increase the inflammatory response. alpha-linolenic acid is known as " ALA " . ====================================================== Men should not consume soy as it acts as an estrogen mimic.

Yup. And the side chain of GLA is recognized by the estrogen receptor. ====================================================== There is a lot more just need time to find it. flip970039 <flip970039@...> wrote: I must admit that i have real doubts about this claim.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Dr. Weil is one of my heroes I frist read about Omega-3 in his book. He went on to say we doing get it in our diet anymore because the meat we eat is corn fed. When they ate grass this is were we got Omega-3 from the meat. Fast foods are full of SOY SOY is not good for men. It has a marker like Estradiol and when it fills your cells your brain thinks it's testosterone and stops sending the LH and FSH messages to your testis to make more testosteone. Just think women were feeding there baby boys SOY MILK. rndchemist <rndchemist@...> wrote: I found this article from a USA doctor (I hope this is not a hoax!!): http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/id/QAA400149 Flaco > > > >>Philip: > >> > >>Thank you for that interesting link! > >> > >>Are there any Omega 6/3 fatty acids supplements that are 100% from > >>fish oil? > > Thanks.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Yes I feel Dr. Weil is on the point but think about it it is dam hard to balance everything with diet. So I stay away from Flax seeds and SOY products because I have problems with high Estradiol. http://www.soyonlineservice.co.nz/ Dave <groupsdude@...> wrote: This is one of the most frustrating things in the world of trying to to the right things for your health!

ANd Dr. is saying the flax plant fiber carries to much phytoestrogens. It's not inconsistent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
