Ciclosporin (cyclosporine, Neoral): Blood levels of ciclosporin are increased if taken with grapefruit juice, orange juice, or apple juice. [12] A plausible mechanism involves the combined inhibition of enteric CYP3A4 and MDR1, which potentially leads to serious adverse events (e.g., nephrotoxicity).
"This causes medication levels to remain higher and longer than without grapefruit," Joy Peterson, a clinical pharmacist at Wellstar Health System, tells Yahoo Life. "The increased levels may ...
Another theory is the high levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in tomatoes since gabapentin has been shown to relieve hot flashes. Foods That Trigger Hot Flashes and Night Sweats
Grapefruit and grapefruit juice have been found to interact with numerous drugs, in many cases resulting in adverse effects. [4] This happens in two ways: one is that grapefruit can block an enzyme which metabolizes medication, [5] and if the drug is not metabolized, then the level of the drug in the blood can become too high, leading to an adverse effect. [5]

Estrogen levels change throughout the menstrual cycle, too, peaking during ovulation. But, “generally, levels of estradiol (E2) between 30 to 400 pg/mL are considered normal during reproductive ...
The similarities, at molecular level, of an estrogen and a phytoestrogen allow them to mildly mimic and sometimes act as an antagonist of estrogen. [2] Phytoestrogens were first observed in 1926, [ 2 ] [ 5 ] but it was unknown if they could have any effect in human or animal metabolism.
When estrogen levels drop during menopause, women’s risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes increases. But vitamin D brings down inflammation and lowers oxidative stress (that’s the kind ...
