To be honest I have looked and looked and yes they do say to be weary of cancer risk "potentially" because it is an estrogenic herb but they say that about fennel/fenugreek and all the other phyto estrogens too. If I see a paper that emphasizes it does/can which makes sense to me I will be more inclined to stop cold turkey
For now, il keep the natureday dosage on the low end to be cautious but yes I will make up my own blend less DQ and may even alternate with the natureday till it runs out But like I said to you in a previous post I really don't understand what dong quai does to enlarge the breasts anyway??.. :s So you are soo sensible to suggest making up your own, that way you know what is in it too! The next herbs I order I will make sure they are all organic extracts to take it a step further too
