Soy Isoflavones 40 -
Phytoestrogens are plant-based chemicals that are considered estrogen-like. They appear, according to research, to have the ability to protect against hormone related diseases. Although there are over 100 phytoestrogens discovered, isoflavones are researched abundantly. Particularly, genistein and diadzein, have shown remarkable results for hormone support, bone regeneration, prostate support and mood improvement.
This standardized soy isoflavone extract contains 40% total isoflavones naturally concentrated with a high genistin/genistein profile for enhanced cardiovascular support, estrogen metabolism, bone health, and prostate and breast cell health.
What Is It?
Soybeans and soy products such as tofu and tempeh are widely recognized for their health-promoting properties.
The principle active components are isoflavones,
phytochemicals, which have demonstrated antioxidant
and estrogenic activity. This soy isoflavone extract
contains 40% total isoflavones in their natural ratios.
In addition, 60% of the isoflavones are in the genistin/genistein form, the form studies have shown to be most active.*
Uses For Soy Isoflavones 40
Menopause Support: Isoflavones help to balance the activity of estrogen in the body. As phytoestrogens,
isoflavones exhibit weaker estrogenic activity than human estrogens but compete for the same receptor sites on human cells. They have demonstrated the ability to enhance 2-hydroxyestrogen (2-0H) metabolism and to modulate 16-hydroxyestrogen (16-OH) metabolism,
promoting proper estrogen balance, supporting hot
flashes and maintaining healthy breast cell function. In both premenopausal and postmenopausal women, soy isoflavones support healthy lipid metabolism, playing an important role in cardiovascular health. Furthermore, isoflavone-rich diets have been shown to support bone
mineral health in women.*
Prostate Health: Studies suggest that soy isoflavones
play a role in maintaining healthy enzyme activity and
cellular health of prostate tissue.*
