By incorporating estrogen elements into your daily meals, you can enjoy a healthy and feminine lifestyle every day.
Although the amount you can consume may be minimal, it’s far better than having none at all. Make it easy to include these elements in your routine and stay beautiful for years to come. The key is to take folic acid and estrogen simultaneously. Details can be found at the bottom of this page.

Kinako (roasted soybean flour)
Milk
Folic Acid Peperoncino
Extra-thin pasta (5-minute cooking time)
Garlic

• • Broccoli
For the broccoli used in this recipe, please refer to this source. Regular broccoli can also be used as a substitute. Regular broccoli tends to have a slightly sweeter taste. The source contains many recipes, so it’s quite interesting to explore.
Section 1: Chickpeas and Cottage Cheese Cocotte
Lightly coat a cocotte dish with butter, then add the chickpeas and cottage cheese.
Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) for 15 minutes.
Note: Cottage cheese does not melt like regular cheese. If you prefer a gooey texture, feel free to use a different type of cheese.
Sprinkle a pinch of herbs on top for garnish. This step is optional but adds a nice touch.
Enjoy your simple yet nutritious cocotte dish!
Section 2: Kinako Milk
A simple, quick, and nutritious drink made with just two ingredients. Perfect for a healthy boost!
Blend kinako (roasted soybean flour) and milk in a blender for 15 seconds. That’s it!
Tip: Using a blender ensures the mixture is smooth and well-combined, so it’s highly recommended.
For optimal benefits, try to consume kinako alongside broccoli. If you’re not a fan of milk, consider enjoying kinako in a dessert or another dish instead.
Enjoy this creamy, protein-packed drink as part of your balanced diet!
Section 3: Folic Acid Peperoncino
1.Steam the broccoli in the microwave for 5 minutes. Add about 1 cm of water to the bottom of the dish, and let the steam cook the broccoli.
Note: Don’t discard the water that escapes from the broccoli during cooking—it's full of nutrients and can be used later in the pasta dish to enhance the flavor.
2.Once the broccoli is cooked, cut it into three equal parts.
Note: If you’re using regular broccoli, be sure to separate the florets (the "flower" part) from the stalks.
3.First, sauté the chili pepper, the stalks of the broccoli, and garlic on low heat.
4..Add the cooked pasta to the pan. At this point, pour in the broccoli cooking water that was set aside. Use slightly undercooked pasta and continue to simmer the mixture, allowing the pasta to absorb the remaining broccoli water and flavors.
Once the pasta is cooked, top it with the leafy parts of the broccoli and it's ready to serve.
You can add salt to taste when eating. As I generally aim for a low-sodium lifestyle, most of my recipes do not include salt.
Let’s take a look at the nutrients hidden in each recipe:
Chickpeas and Cottage Cheese Cocotte
Chickpeas: Plant-based protein, fibre, iron, B vitamins, phytoestrogens
Cottage Cheese: Protein, calcium, vitamin B2, vitamin A
Oregano, Parsley: Antioxidants, vitamin C, vitamin K, folic acid
Kinako Milk
Kinako (Roasted Soybean Flour): Plant-based protein, calcium, iron, B vitamins
Milk: Calcium, vitamin D, protein, riboflavin (vitamin B2)
Folic Acid Peperoncino
Broccoli: Folate, vitamin C, calcium, fibre, antioxidants (flavonoids)
Garlic: Allicin (antibacterial, anti-inflammatory properties), vitamin B6, calcium
Olive Oil: Healthy fats (omega-9), vitamin E
These recipes are packed with essential nutrients, especially those beneficial for women, such as estrogen, folic acid, and calcium, all in a balanced combination.
Chickpeas
Chickpeas are rich in a variety of vitamins and plant-based phytoestrogens. These phytoestrogens integrate with estrogen receptors in the human body, helping to synthesize estrogen. However, the amount of estrogen you can obtain from chickpeas is quite small. To enhance the effect, it may be beneficial to combine chickpeas with a drink like kinako milk, which is packed with estrogen-boosting properties.
Folic Acid
Folic acid is abundant in broccoli and is one of the essential nutrients for pregnant women. It plays a crucial role in the development of the baby’s brain. When consumed from early pregnancy, it is believed to support the healthy brain development of the fetus, and it is recommended by obstetricians.
Clinical studies have confirmed that taking folic acid during pregnancy helps minimize the risk of congenital abnormalities.
A fun fact: During my pregnancy with my first son, I ate a lot of broccoli, and now he absolutely loves it! The legend that the plants and flavors a mother eats during pregnancy are passed on to her child’s taste preferences seems to be true.
Why take Estrogen and Folic Acid Together?
You may have heard of hormone replacement therapy (HRT), which is commonly used to alleviate menopausal symptoms and maintain bone density. Folic acid helps to support the absorption of estrogen, which is why simultaneous intake of both is recommended in this therapy. However, it’s important to note that excessive intake can interfere with treatment. Therefore, the goal here is to incorporate these nutrients with the intention of promoting overall beauty and health in a balanced way, rather than as part of a medical treatment.
