First of all, if somebody got access to the full publication pls let me know.
It's a study about the effects of the Essential oil of Ginger on Rheumatoid Arthritis.
The EO's seem to mitigate inflammation and ahve a general favourbale effect on the condition, and
the scientist claim it is due to actions that are similar to those that 17ß-Estradiol (E2) would excert on that condition. This would be in line with te classification of some of the phenolic essential oil components as phyto-estrogens.
However, the Essential oil does not have the same effects like E2 on "classic estrogen-responsive organs".
It think it is an interesting find. It might indictae that some phytoestrogens are anti-estrogenic in that they have protective effect similar to that of estrogens without some of the bad (substituting estrogens in some tissue).
It's a complicated field and I'm not aware that there is a definitive consensus. Some proclaim that some phytoestrogens are healthy via repalcing the harmfu endogenous ones, maybe this is an indication
