Research has demonstrated that certain flavonoids, particularly those found in fruits and vegetables, can act as competitive inhibitors of the aromatase enzyme in laboratory settings.

The potential of green tea as a modulator of hormonal pathways has led to widespread discussion, but the key question remains: is green tea an estrogen blocker in a practical sense, or is the relationship more complex?
