Flaxseed is superior. Drinking 20g of it will make even abysmal conversion rates sufficient.

Problem with flaxseed is it is the richest dietary source of lignans, a type of phytoestrogen. A phytoestrogen is a plant nutrient that is somewhat similar to the female hormone estrogen. Due to this similarity, lignans may have estrogenic and/or anti-estrogenic effects in the body.
Yet beer still has magnitudes more given the consumed quantities.
That's why I don't drink beer either.
Yeah, but you eat female mammals regularly which are filled with real animal estrogen.
