What happens if you eat too much pomegranate?

The maximum amount of pomegranate that can be eaten daily can not lead to an overdosis.

Can taking phytoestrogens cause problems?

Phytoestrogens can increase menstrual bleeding in those women who have heavy periods before menopause. This is due to the fact that even in the years before menopause there is frequently a surplus of estrogen, while at the same time there is not enough progesterone. This estrogen surplus may promote monthly bleeding in some cases. Testing the hormone level provides reliable information on the current hormone status.
