Red Clover, Isoflavones, and estrogen-related cell growth According to research, red clover contains high amounts of isoflavones, namely, Biochanin A (BCA). Research reveals that this isoflavone increases the production of sulfotransferases - enzymes implicated in the phase 2 liver detoxification. These enzymes help metabolize estrogen, and aid the body to eliminate chemicals that cause cancer. If sulfotransferase enzymes are not properly regulated, it will leave the body more prone to cancers and diseases related to estrogen. Biochanin A is also a known aromatase inhibitor, slowing down estrogen-driven cell growth. Lastly, Biochanin A binds to AhR receptors in breast cancer cells, blocking chemical carcinogens from binding to the cancerous cells. #health #redclover #biochaninA #redcloverblossoms #redclovertea (at The Healing Tree, LLC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQewXOZA3du/?utm_medium=tumblr
