Life Extension Breast Health Formula, 60 Vcaps
Women today face a growing number of health issues, including the need to support DNA gene structure in the breast.
Detrimental factors such as the aging process, along with the daily bombardment of damaging environmental estrogen-like compounds, demonstrate the need to support a woman's breast cellular structure.
A wealth of research shows that specific plant extracts can positively influence cellular status and remove some of the anxiety that women face about maintaining a healthy balance of estrogens. Estrogen is broken down in the body into two important metabolites.
Those metabolites are the good-hydroxyestrone and the bad alpha-hydroxyestrone. Scientists have identified nutrients like indole-3-carbinol (I3C) that can tip the delicate balance of estrogens in favor of the good form.
Women seeking to proactively restore their youthful hormonal balance can now take a phytonutrient-based formula that helps support healthy estrogen activity and detoxification.
Some of the active ingredients in the Breast Health Formula are:
