Claim

Many toxic chemicals and stressful physical processes can activate the same functions as estrogen




Arguments

If it is true that...

Estrogen sets the brain's temperature regulator lower but can also lower the metabolic rate through serotonin and other mediators

and

Estrogen plays a role in organisms as diverse as yeasts, worms, mollusks, and in modifying the function of practically every type of animal cell--skin, nerve, muscle, bone, hair, gland, etc

Then it must be true that...

Many toxic chemicals and stressful physical processes can activate the same functions as estrogen
