In short if you donβt want to read all of this.
- All plastics (Polyethylene Terephthalate, Polycarbonates, Polystyrenes, Polyethersulfones, Polyvinyls, etc.): Food/Beverage Packaging (Bottles, Cans, ...) Shampoo/Soap Bottles, Shower Cabins/Bathtubs, Shopping Bags, Windows/Doors, Phones, Pens, Eyeglasses, Syringes, IV Bags, Medicine Blisters, Water Pipes, Wiring/Cables, CDs, Computer Peripherals (Older ones contain other chemicals that have been banned now), Carpets/Parquet, Furniture, Certain Clothes etc.
- Plant Mycotoxins (Zearalenones): Wheat, Oats, Barley, Rye, Spelt, Rice, Corn, Sugar Cane, Potatoes, Peanuts, Bananas, etc.
- All water sources (Birth Control/Other Estrogen Forms, Zearalenone, Estrogens from the plastics thrown in water or through which the water has traveled, etc.)
- Fruits, Vegetables and Other Plants Either Used As Food Or Medicine (Either trough Endogenous Estrogens or commonly used Pesticides/Fungicides/Insecticides, etc.)

What is the least estrogenic not recommend diet:
- No Water: Animal products that are lightly cooked have a good level of water and minerals inside of it. Consuming too much water will lead to a decrease in Vasopressin, which reabsorbs the water into the bloodstream and stops it from being removed trough urine, along with all minerals inside of it.
- Ruminant Muscle Meat and Organs, Cooked as close to Rare as possible to preserve water and mineral content
- Milk and Other Dairy (Preferably Raw and not stored in Plastic, but Glass): Not necessary, especially if you want to reach a state where you can use fat as energy as opposed to dietary Glucose. Yes, Glucose will still be produced in your body. If you take a Glucose Test on this diet you will find it will not read 0. Glucose will be produced as needed from Fats, while the Protein will be preserved to be used once there is no bodyfat or dietary fat that can be used (Late-stage starvation)

Common questions and answers:
1) Estrogens in Milk:
It can contain small amounts of Endogenous Estrogens with a bioavailability of less than 5% (From an already low dose), more likely if the cow has been injected with hormones (Pregnant cows cannot lactate due to Estrogen inhibiting Prolactin), which is already very unlikely and even less so if you get Raw Milk from a source you know such as a local farmer. IGF hormones from milk have no oral bioavailability. Peptides are broken down in the stomach into amino acids, then are absorbed.
2) Antioxidants:
Meat (Muscle especially) contains many essential antioxidants, some of which are not present at all in plants: Taurine, Cysteine, Methionine, Glutathione, Lipoic Acid. The metabolism of animal foods also produce a very strong antioxidant: Uric Acid (It has an efficacy about the same as Vitamin C, only that it is not converted into Oxalic Acid, like Vitamin C)
Even then, animals are able to produce Vitamin C endogenously and store a part in their body, even in the muscles. It is a small dose but not a lot is required. The absorption of Vitamin C in the muscle is done trough the Glucose Transporter 4 which also transports glucose to the muscle, thus the lack of Glucose in the diet will increase absorption of the Vitamin C.
3) Fiber:
It is ridiculous to think you would need Plant Fiber in order to have good digestion. The main reason would be that our consumption of Fiber is relatively recent, although there are still people that deny humans were ever Carnivores and say they used to be "Berry Pickers".
Either way, your intestines are contracting and relaxing in order to keep the food moving through your GI, not Fiber. There is not a single study out there, trustworthy or not, that shows any mechanics or reasons at all to consume Fiber. There is actually one study out there with a small number of participants experiencing chronic constipation where the complete removal of Fiber from the diet removed all symptoms of constipation.
4) Cholesterol:
As above, there is not even any proof, to begin with, that cholesterol was of any issue to people, not dietary or endogenously produced. It is essential

How to avoid Xenoestrogens ?
Choose organic food: Opt for organic produce, meat, and dairy products as much as possible. Organic farming practices restrict the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers that may contain EDCs.
Eat hormone-free meat: Select hormone-free or organic meat and poultry products to reduce the exposure to EDCs that might be present in conventional meat from animals treated with growth hormones.
Use BPA-free products: Bisphenol A (BPA) is a known EDC found in certain plastics, including food containers and beverage bottles. Look for BPA-free labels on plastic products, or choose glass, stainless steel, or ceramic alternatives for storing food and drinks.
Avoid canned foods: Many food cans are lined with a resin containing BPA, which can leach into the food. Choose fresh or frozen foods over canned options, or look for brands that use BPA-free can linings.
Minimize plastic use: Reduce your overall use of plastic products. Instead of plastic bags, opt for reusable cloth bags. Use glass or stainless steel containers for storing food and beverages, and avoid microwaving food in plastic containers.
Choose natural personal care products: Many personal care products, such as lotions, shampoos, and cosmetics, contain EDCs. Read labels and choose products made with natural ingredients or those labeled as "paraben-free," "phthalate-free," and "fragrance-free."
Filter your water: Use a high-quality water filter to remove potential EDCs, such as pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and industrial pollutants, from your drinking water. Look for filters certified to remove these substances.
Be cautious with cleaning products: Many conventional household cleaning products contain EDCs. Look for eco-friendly, biodegradable, or fragrance-free alternatives. You can also make your own cleaning solutions using simple ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, and lemon juice.
Be aware of synthetic fragrances: Synthetic fragrances used in air fresheners, perfumes, and scented candles can contain EDCs. Opt for fragrance-free or naturally scented products, or consider using essential oils for pleasant aromas.
Educate yourself: Stay informed about potential sources of EDCs and regularly check for updates on the topic. Read labels, do research, and make conscious choices to reduce your exposure to these harmful chemicals
