Sorry for the mistake 
. I had actually caught myself earlier on but made it again when I thought fit to expand the ARI acronym. At least it provided the benefit of some really useful background from Abi - thank you. The information on beta-sitosterol is particularly welcome. This whole area of endocrinology is hideously complex, and I tend to hesitate on the brink. But going into the lion's den again, beta-sitosterol is a plant sterol present in many herbs as well as PM, but there is very little in SP which has caused ridiculous statements by sellers of herbal remedies such as that SP is 300 times less effective than beta-sitosterol. Beta-sitosterol is also supposed to improve ones good/bad cholesterol ratio, allegedly a genetic weakness in my family. It seems to be true of most effective herbals (and pharmaceuticals) that they are effective for multiple apparently widely differenr and sometimes conflicting purposes. Cholestyramine was developed as a cholesterol control drug, but is rarely prescribed for that purpose these days. Forskolin has been suggested as another aromatase promoter, but probably isn't useful for that purpose.
