You're welcome. This list is preliminary, and based on product ingredients. My theory is if an herb has a chemical that activates growth, but has another chemical that causes weight loss at the same time it causes reduction in that area since that tissue is stimulated. Also possible, if a combination of supplements are taken that have these two effects.
There isn't enough public information on those herbs. Green tea, and coffee have caffeine. Chocolate has theobromine which is caffeine-like. Seeing how people who drink green tea has less incidences of cancer, occasionally drinking green tea might be helpful for health, or in some cases be helpful (green tea inhibits DHT). Perhaps green tea tones breasts.
Some herbs contain different levels of chemicals depending on how they're prepared. For instance Damiana decreases appetite if it is an alcohol extract, but it has little effect if it's taken in tea form.
Most information from NLM about it has to do with gynecomastia, and I believe it mostly focuses on androgens. There could possibly be more information of another mechanism there. It is known for sure that DHT inhibits breast growth. Testosterone by itself probably doesn't inhibit breast growth so much, because estrogen is made of it, and until testosterone is converted into DHT which causes unwanted effects.
