It’s not. Plant estrogens have a similar structure to human estrogen, but do not work the same in the human body. You can tell this is true because otherwise trans women would be downing soy milk like there was no tomorrow.
Isn’t estradiol made from yams? Like you can’t just eat plants for their hormones even if you physically could eat enough the hormones still need processed to be noticably effective on humans, but plants are still a viable source
It’s not extracted as-is from yams. Yams have diosgenin - which needs to be extracted, cleaned and then put through a few chemical processes to be useful.
Plants are viable sources of precursors not of the end result, and many of these precursors aren’t useful in biological processes.
Scientific studies have not shown Men to have substantial estrogen level changes from drinking soy.

You know what is pack full of estrogen-estrogen? Cow milk and other dairy produt.

That’s why I mentioned it needs processed. Didn’t know the word precursors but yeah we’re talking the same thing
So is testosterone, in terms of its chemical precursor.
