    Nyckelord :Växtöstrogener; Produktionsdjur; Sällskapsdjur;

    Sammanfattning : Phytoestrogens are secondary metabolites produced by plants. Among the plants that make phytoestrogens are soya, red clover and some types of grass. The name phytoestrogen is a collective term for compounds such as genistein, daidzein, biochanin A and formononetin. These compounds are similar to oestradiol-17β in their chemical structure.
