<< Too much tofu induces ‘brain aging,’ study shows >> A Hawaii research team says high consumption of the soy product by a group of men lowered mental abilities Maybe its just a man thing. hehehehe So all those weight lifters and body builders are aging their brains huh from taking all that Soy? I thought some of them acted strange. My son takes Soy and is 23 and sure has acted a lot more mature in the last few years. LOL :) <A HREF="http://www.families-first.com/hotflash/faq/soy2.htm">Hotflash! - FAQ - Soy & Isoflavones</A> Our body then reacts as if there really is estrogen at the sites. This can help out tremendously with some of the symptoms brought on by perimenopause and menopause. Some research suggests that by doing this soy can decrease hot flashes and vaginal dryness, in addition to providing other health benefits. Japanese women, whose diet is very high in soy, have much fewer perimenopause and menopause symptoms. Current studies attribute this to their high isoflavone diet. Soy and the isoflavones that are in soy also have a number of other healthy roles. Soy can lower cholesterol, increase bone density (soy is generally high in calcium) and possibly decrease the risk of developing breast cancer. (though the evidence for this is not completely in yet). Soy also may have long standing benefits for men in preventing and recovering from prostate cancer.
