Macrobiotic Diet

Anyone on it?  What kind of foods is it exactly? Wonder if it would be good to reduce estogen levels?

Mostly whole grains.  Typically, lots of phytoestrogens.  You may want to ask your doctor about that (soy products) as there are conflicting views of eating lots of soy products with some sorts of bc.

I think if you stick to lots of whole grain products, rather than refined grains, lots of veggies and meat/fish/poultry, organic, in moderation you are on the right track.

Thanks for responding- I don't want to follow that then- since I'm estrogen positive.
