26. Good Soy
• Phytoestrogens
– Isoflavones
• daidzein and genistein -vegetable substances that have positive
protective action in body
• reduces the binding of weak xenoestrogens to estrogen receptor sites
• the effects soy and soy isoflavones exert are cancer preventative
These effects are presumed to be due to nonsteroidal estrogens of the isoflavone class, which behave as partial
estrogen agonists/antagonists. The responses to soy protein are potentially beneficial with respect to risk
factors for breast cancer and may in part explain the low incidence of breast cancer and its correlation with a
high soy intake in Japanese and Chinese women. and Chinese women.

of premenopausal women.” (1994): Am J Clin Nutr, Vol 60, 333-340.
