Foods to increase the Estrogen levels in the body ..

For someone who needs to increase the levels of estrogen in their body , what kind of dietary changes can they make to make this happen naturally? I believe there are no supplements that cater to increasing the estrogen levels?

Are there any particular types of foods that can help in anyway? :konfused:
