What Are Xenoestrogens? Our modern environment is FULL of chemicals that act as xenoestrogens. Xenoestrogens are chemicals and compounds from outside of the body, then when ingested or absorbed, act as weak estrogens in the body. Not to be confused with phytoestrogens from food that sometimes have health benefits, xenoestrogens are chemicals found in everyday personal care products, cookware, plastics, flame retardants applied to mattresses and furniture, and, in general, almost everywhere else you can imagine! We can ingest and absorb xenoestrogens every single time we smell chemical fumes, handle receipts from the grocery or department store, drink out of plastic bottles, eat out of plastic or styrofoam storage containers… even sleeping on your 10 year old or brand new memory foam mattress might expose you to these insidious chemicals. Xenoestrogens can Lead to Estrogen Dominance Xenoestrogens can lead to you body producing excess estrogen. When xenoestrogens enter the body, not only do they exert their unwanted effects on your cells and tissue, as well as burden your liver, they also bind to estrogen receptors in the body, decreasing the amount of estrogen available to cells and tissues that actually need it. This causes your organs to produce even more estrogen in response to your body’s perceived ‘lack’ of estrogen. This excess estrogen can have a variety of impacts, including impacts on body composition, PMS and menopause symptoms, and estrogen balance.† How Do You Avoid Xenoestrogens? What can you do about xenoestrogens? While avoiding all xenoestrogens is virtually impossible, changing your diet and lifestyle has a huge impact! Switching to natural personal care products, choosing organic fruits and vegetables as well as sourcing protein from animals raised without chemicals, hormones, and antibiotics can all help. Using cookware made with clean materials, choosing to have your purchase receipt emailed to you or not printed at all, avoiding all plastics, and investing in a latex mattress and flame retardant free furniture are also all excellent steps toward eliminating xenoestrogens from your daily life.
