Two main estrogen receptors in nucleus: ER-alpha and ER-beta.

ER-alpha promotes proliferation [rapid cellular growth and division]---> Cancer

ER-beta has shown to have anti-proliferative effects---> protective effect vs cancer

Some phytoestrogens can also serve as antioxidants. Antioxidants decrease the amounts of free radicals in the body which can cause cellular damage or death.
