Estrogen is a female hormone, which is produced by ovary and placenta. The adrenal cortex also produces a small amount of estrogen. After female children enter puberty, the ovaries begin to secrete estrogen. However, with the increase of age, the secretion of estrogen also decreases, and the skin loses its previous luster and elasticity, especially for women after 40 years old. If you want to delay aging.

Foods that can increase female estrogen are as follows:

1, soybean. The structure of soybean isoflavone is similar to estrogen in women, and it can supplement estrogen in human body. When the estrogen level in the body is too high, soybean isoflavone will prevent estrogen from acting excessively on female target organs, thus keeping the estrogen activity in women in balance, so soybean isoflavone is also called the regulator of female estrogen level.

2, royal jelly. Royal jelly contains trace estrogen, which can just make up for the deficiency of female estrogen.

3. Milk. Women, if they eat 1 cup of milk and 500 grams of fish every day for a long time, can play a role in regulating the balance of estrogen.

4. Foods rich in selenium and zinc also have special effects on balancing estrogen. Selenium can prevent carcinogens from combining with normal cell deoxyribonucleic acid, and zinc has a strong inhibitory effect on various cancers in different parts of the human body. Selenium-containing vegetables include shepherd's purse, garlic, mushrooms, tomatoes, pumpkins and so on; Zinc-containing foods include oysters, mackerel, eels, kelp, beans, sesame seeds, walnuts, etc., among which the zinc content of oysters is particularly considerable.

5. Unsaturated fat in nuts, seeds and fish has a certain effect on balancing hormone levels.

6. Eating more than 40 grams of dietary fiber every day and reducing the intake of fat by 20% can keep the hormone level balanced.
