Research Context

How does Red Clover work?
Red clover isoflavones bind to oestrogen receptors (particularly ERβ) with lower affinity than endogenous oestradiol. This selective receptor activity may produce mild oestrogenic effects in tissues such as bone and the vasomotor system, while having limited stimulatory effects on breast and uterine tissue.
