Natural Breast Enhancement Forums

A lot of people around here tend to have hormonal imbalances, or other health issues that either interfere with results or make it difficult to take anything, or just have health issues in general. Often they get better with a healthy diet, but there's a lot of guessing involved in what that means. It often leads to fad foods that aren't actually that great, or a mix of good and bad guesses.

So I thought I'd list some of the most nutritious foods there are:
Almonds
Bitter Melon
Brewer's Yeast
Broccoli
Cilantro
Endive
Escarole
Garbanzo Beans / Hummus
Kelp
Oysters
Parsley
Pumpkin Seeds
Rice Bran
Sesame Seeds / Tahini
Spinach
Spirulina
Sunchokes
Sunflower Seeds
Watercress
Wheat Germ
White, Brown Or Portabello Mushrooms

You can find more detailed nutritional information at http://ndb.nal.usda.gov/
Also not well covered by the above are vitamin D (from UV light) and omega 3 fatty acids from seafood or fish oil. There are lots of other great foods besides the above, but the above are the best of the best. I may have forgotten or overlooked some too, but I tried to catch as many as I've ever learned about.

Most of the produce above lose almost all their nutrition when canned or dried, and lose a little from freezing or cooking. Kelp and spirulina are fine dry in that they still lack the nutrients of fresh foods but kelp is instead good for microminerals and spirulina for antioxidants.

Surfer thank you!
This is a very informative thread and I will take note.
Are all sources of Omega 6 or GLA's estrogenic in nature or have those properties etc? Thanks

I doubt it since nearly all nuts and plant oils have a large amount of omega 6 and that would mean many many people are already getting a lot. Among nuts I think it's mainly flax seeds that are loaded with weak phytoestrogens.

I can't imagine any nutrient to have much specific hormonal effect for that matter; if a food has such an effect it's in addition to the nutrients. But many nutrients are necessary to make a normal level of hormones and then once those are available your body selects whatever it needs to make.
