Eating a high-fiber diet helps the body get rid of excess estrogen through bowel movements.

When your body processes estrogen, it sends it to your gut to be thrown away. But if things move too slowly, your body can actually soak that estrogen right back up. Eating plenty of fiber, like oats, beans, and apples, keeps things moving. It binds to the hormone and sweeps it out when you go to the toilet. This prevents it from getting recycled back into your blood.
