I'i'm looking an oil to supplement my diet which is rich in EFA's but that is low in phytoestrogens.
i've read flax seed oil is high in phytoestrogens.
i am currently using hemp seed oil, i know that canabis use raises estrogen levels i am unsure if hemp seed oil used in your diet would do likewise as it may be high in isoflavinoids also.
could anyone shed some light on this.
i use fish oil capsules for DHA & EPA and was using extra virgin olive oil for omega 6 fats,also 1 1200mg starflower oil capsule for GLA.
would using an oil blend like UDO's oil be a better option alongside fish oils rather than using 1 individual oil like flax seed or hemp seed to minimise any problems if indeed there are any?
this may sound like paranoia but i want to maximise natural testosterone levels and certainly do not want to use anything that might be detrimental,and might in fact lower testosterone levels.
any advice would be greatly appreciated.
