Vanilla topical update:

according to Lotus's research on distant-cell regarding hormones:
Hormones affect distant cells by binding to specific receptor proteins in the target cell resulting in a change in cell function. When a hormone binds to the receptor, it results in the activation of a signal transduction pathway. This may lead to cell type-specific responses that include rapid non-genomic effects or slower genomic responses where the hormones acting through their receptors activate gene transcription resulting in increased expression of target proteins.

it is my premise, since vanilla activates Estrogen receptors.. the application of vanilla extract to the breasts would activate those specific ER that would not normally be activated by an oral dose of estrogenic or herbal phytoestrogens... just a theory, but one I would bank on working,..
