Boob Foods
Unfortunately, many Asian girls are not very well-endowed in the chest department!!!!
...BOOI never complained about it when I was growing up. However, my high school friends always told me about "boob foods". The magical foods that we should eat a lot of to increase our bust size. The famous boob foods are papayas, avocadoes, and papaya milk:
Papaya is a great source of vitamin A and C, while avocadoes are full of healthy monounsaturated fats. But... where did the boob stuff come in???? Breasts are made of fatty tissue. If you ate a whole bunch of papayas and avocadoes (or anything!), your boobs could grow bigger, but so would the rest of your body.
I did a quick search of published peer-reviewed journal articles at my university's library. I only found that there is no published evidence or actual clinical trials on bust-enhancing herbal products.
I did find though that the average breast-size has increased over time, especially in western countries. This could be due to the obesity epidemic or the environmental pollutants and industrial waste that mimick the effects of estrogen. The birth control pill is also more commonly used today. It didn't even exist when our grandmothers were born! Estrogen will increase the water retention in your body, hence one will be more endowed!
I think the belief that papayas and avocadoes will increase your breast size is a MYTH that mostly Asians believe in. If any food truely had the ability to increase bust-size, wouldn't there be NO flat-chested women in the world? Have you ever heard of these boob foods? What other boob foods have you heard of?

Hmmmm intersting Haha! I really really like avocadoes...but I don't consider it a boob food! Yes, boobs are mostly fat, so it would make sense (and it's true) that boobs are usually proportional to your amount of body fat.
And I never knew there was a size G.....!!
Oh how neat! After exploring your website for quite a bit of time, I've decided that you are, in fact, interesting. I think I'll subscribe.
Haha this is some good stuff. I guess I should eat more avocados if i don 't want to get a boob job. I didn't know that they had F-cup cookies. F size is too big for me. I'd settle for a small C.
LMAO, what a surprising post by lizzie_wizzie!
All these myth/products are because of guys want woman to have bigger boobs...
@kachino - this is what girls talk about lol
@FoxFire12 - thanks =D
@lizzie_wizzie - Well FYI, this is also what guys are talking about
what if you eat all that food... and then exercise the rest of your body so that the fat can only deposit into your boobs? hahaha. i used to think maybe that would work. sigh.
@Sting_a_Sting - I heard that doing chest presses will help to "lift" your boobs. but no.. exercise burns calories away. Keep dreaming~ Let's make some "F-Cup Cookies" when i get back to van ;) lol
hey you should really get that up on the front page of lovelyish. It helps people like me who tend to develope slower. Its another option to plastic surgery
@lipstick_mafia - I think it's just a myth tho. I couldn't find any published clinical trials that proved the success of any particular food or herb
Haha! I like your blog. The F-cup cookies especially make me laugh. =j
Lactation period? I guess thats when a new mother is at her fullest? I have no clue about boobs foods, maybe it's all about the gene.
Hey I thought you might find this interesting

"Unfortunately, many Asian girls are not very well-endowed in the chest department!!!!"
Haha, It's so true, but I would never say it myself. I think I noticed back in the first half of high school because there were a lot of Asians going to that school.
I had nooooo clue. This is new to me.Â
Or you could just get REALLLY fat. The fat makes your boobs bigger.
@ErniesUrn - you can be a guinea pig and we can experiment the boob foods on you ;)
@shake_things_up - Thanks for this link! I did find it interesting especially because it's in the Canadian context. This will help me in some background information for work!!
@Rejected_Stone - Find me an Asian with double Ds!!
wow very helpful, since u're studying nutrition :) thankk u ! so r u saying we shuldnt consume avocadoes if we dont wnt to get fat?
@xiomay - The type of fat from avocadoes is a healthy fat called monounsaturated fat. It will help to reduce bad cholesterol in your body! This fat is also found in olive oil and nuts. It is important to get this kind of fat in your diet and avoid bad fats like saturated and trans fats. I'm not saying to avoid avocadoes. They are healthy for you, but they are higher in calories than other fruits, so it is possible that eating a large amount of avocado will make you gain weight depending on what your overall calorie intake is. I hope this helps! :)
Here is the nutrition facts for avocadoes:

yeah, they probably think that since avocadoes make you gain weight if you eat a lot of 'em, contributing to your bust size...
pfft, i've been eating avocadoes but never heard that it was a boob food. I did hear of papayas though hahaha. my bust isn't any bigger!!
papaya & papaya milk is a really popular belief among asians.
Its true BS. You can buy yourself a whole crate full of papaya to eat- see if your boobs grow in a month*
I DOUBT IT
Haha--I've heard about the papaya thing, but honestly like you said boobs=fat. I tend to be a little curvier than most asian girls, so I always have to watch my weight, and am not concerned about increasing my breast size.
Wow I have never ever heard of eating papayas would make boobs bigger... I actually hated the taste. That gives me 2nd thought now lol. I personally think eating dairy would make it more "enhanced". (milk and yogurt will do).
I heard something like that, but I know about 'cremes' better. Once, I was working and a woman selling beauty products gave me the huge bottle of "BustUP!" and I didn't know to laugh, cry, or be insulted. (^^)
