Hi,
My friend, who is a woman of 45 years, has been receiving a prescription diet from many years ago that excludes nuts (almonds, tree nuts, etc), peanuts, strawberries, chocolate, coffee, saussages, among other things.
This diet is to prevent formation of cysts, which she is prone to produce under the right circumstances.
Since I usually do the cooking for both, my question is about what compounds these foods share that could be acting as a cyst trigger.
So I can research in more detail about other ingredients that could be also triggering that are not included on the list.
I'm a little confused because papers I have been reading from sites like Pubmed state some of that ingredients as anticarcinogenic and recommend to eat them as prevention of cysts.
Maybe a estrogenic with ERα affinity compound that those thing share?
Thank you so much.
