    Does non-alcoholic beer (malt) increase estrogen?

    I know alcohol increases estrogen and reduces test. But does the non alcoholic beer have another component that increases estrogen?

    It would be somewhat unlikely, due to some unforeseen issues you may have, such as, diabetes or an over assimilation of adipose fat, a poor pancreas or unhealthy liver to name a few. However, you should be safe.

    Unless you live off nothing but non-alcoholic beer, it makes no difference. Who drinks that stuff, anyway?

    as many guys as i see drink water out of plastic bottles, which is well documented to reduce test levels, that a non alchoholic beer would be a concern?

    It has always been my understanding that alcohol is what decreases test. Not malt, hops, barley, or water. Unless that is mistaken, I see no reason for near beer to do anything but taste like overproofed bread dough and not get you buzzed.

    Not enough to matter unless youre drinking cases of it every night. Yes, it is a phytoestrogen, which is a xenoestrogenic form. It's as much estrogen as a plant sterol is an anabolic steroid.

    Plant sterols were all the rage in the 80's. I wasted a sh!t ton of money on them and raised my testosterone by about zero.

    I've never heard of bpi but bpa is what the plastic concern references.

    What is BPA? Should I be worried about it? - MayoClinic.com

    I'm done researching for you. You have google, yes?
