Dr. Betty Murray explains how gut bacteria called the estrobolome affect estrogen levels. Bacteria produce an enzyme that breaks down conjugated estrogen, letting it get reabsorbed instead of leaving the body in stool. This microbial activity directly influences how much estrogen circulates in your system.
Now, what we need to understand is we have a thing called the estrobolome, and the estrobolome are a set of microbes, enteric bacteria, that are capable of modulating and metabolizing your, your body's estrogen and estrogen-like compounds that are slated to be excreted in the stool coming from the liver gallbladder that get wrapped up and should get kept in the stool and go out with the stool. So essentially imagine The astrobolome microbes, so, you know, lots of different types of bacteria that make this enzyme called beta-glucuronidase can influence whether the stuff that's supposed to go to the dumpster actually makes it to the dumpster.
