Estrogen and the Pescatarian Diet
Estrogen, particularly the form known as estradiol, is a hormone that plays a critical role in regulating the reproductive system and secondary sexual characteristics in females. While it is primarily used in medications, such as hormone replacement therapy and contraceptives, it is not typically found in food products. Estradiol can also be present in certain cosmetics and personal care items, but its use in foods is uncommon and not standard practice.
