Role of Isoflavones in the Hypocholesterolemic Effect of Soy
Nutrition Reviews, 2003Epidemiologic data suggest an inverse relationship between the consumption of soy isoflavones and cardiovascular disease risk. The aims of this review are to determine if isoflavones play a role in the hypocholesterolemic effect of soy and whether the studies realized with that scope were adequately designed. In humans, most studies have been performed

Soy Isoflavones: a Safety Review
Nutrition Reviews, 2003Soy isoflavones have been a component of the diet of certain populations for centuries. The consumption of soy generally has been considered beneficial, with a potentially protective effect against a number of chronic diseases; because of their estrogenic activity, however, negative effects of isoflavones have been postulated.

Soy Isoflavones and Gastrointestinal Health
Current Nutrition Reports, 2020Soy isoflavones are known to have beneficial effects on several aspects of gastrointestinal physiological functions (contractility or motility, secretion, morphology, and barrier function). In this review, we discuss the effects of soy isoflavones on the overall gut function and inflammation and assess how these effects might be implicated in the ...

Soy, Isoflavones and Atherosclerosis
2005Consumption of soy protein is associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease in man, and reduced atherosclerosis in a variety of experimental animals. Although a portion of the cardiovascular protective effects appears to be due to reductions in plasma lipoprotein concentration, in most people the magnitude of this effect is relatively small ...

Soy Isoflavones: Are They Useful in Menopause?
Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 2000In October 1999, the US Food and Drug Administration authorized the use on food labels of health claims associated with soy protein and the reduced risk of coronary heart disease. Several studies have indicated that a total daily intake of 25 g of soy protein paired with a low-fat diet resulted in clinically important reductions of total cholesterol ...

Chlorination and Nitration of Soy Isoflavones
Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1999Diets enriched in soy foods containing a high concentration of isoflavonoids are associated with a decrease in the incidence of several chronic inflammatory diseases. Studies with experimental models of diseases, such as atherosclerosis, suggest that these effects can be ascribed to the biological properties of the isoflavones.

Soy Isoflavones in the Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Nutrition and Cancer, 2003Epidemiological studies suggest an inverse association between soy intake and prostate cancer (Pca) risk. We have previously observed that soy isoflavone genistein induces apoptosis and inhibits growth of both androgen-sensitive and androgen-independent Pca cells in vitro. To determine the clinical effects of soy isoflavones on Pca we conducted a pilot

Solid-phase extraction of soy isoflavones
Journal of Chromatography A, 2005An automated method using solid-phase extraction (SPE) for the concentration and clean-up of soy isoflavone extracts is proposed in this work. Using a standardized sample (0.1 g of a freeze dried soybean extract/25 mL of water); eight SPE cartridges with a wide range of sorbents (C18, divinylbenzene and modified divinylbenzene) from different suppliers

Soy isoflavones and their bone protective effects
Inflammopharmacology, 2008Several observational studies have suggested that populations with a high dietary soy intake have a lower incidence of osteoporosis-related fractures when compared to Western populations. However, there has not been consistent data to show that soy isoflavones protect against or lessen bone loss.

Soy, isoflavones, and prostate cancer
Molecular Nutrition & Food Research, 2009AbstractProstate cancer has marked geographic variations between countries. Genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors co‐contribute to the development of the cancer. The association between dietary factors and prostate cancer has been investigated and one explanation for the low incidence of the cancer in Asia might be high consumption of fresh ...
