Soy Protein Powder
The flavonoids in Vegetable Soy Protein are rich in Isoflavones. Genistein and Daidzein are naturally occurring Isoflavones and may have significant Anti-Cancer effects. Soy has also been shown to help lower high cholesterol and provides natural energy and support for a healthy immune system.
Most researchers agree that there is insufficient research to propose dietary guidelines of Isoflavone intake for the prevention of cancer. Still, this study indicates how little is needed to positively affect the body. Studies also reveal that Isoflavones are potent inhibitors of an enzyme called Tyrosine Kinase, a molecule that helps to signal or initiate tumor cell growth. In addition, Isoflavones have been found to inhibit a process called Angiogensis, which is the creation of new blood vessels. When tumors grow, they need blood for nourishment and oxygen and rely on angiogenesis to get that blood. However, Isoflavones help prevent angiogenesis and the subsequent tumor growth.
Research presented at the international conference, "The Role of Soy in Medicine," in Brussels, Dr. John W. Erdman, of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign concurred with other research that has shown that as little as 40 grams of soy daily leads to significantly higher bone density, the opposite of osteoporosis.
At the same conference, Dr. Paolo Fantl of the University of Kentucky in Lexington characterized the action of soy Phytoestrogen as being markedly different from that of endogenous estrogen. Where as the estrogen produced by the body appears to prevent calcium/mineral loss of existing bone, the Phytoestrogens stimulate new bone formation.
This may partially explain the findings of French researcher, Dr. Catala, who reported that soy may reduce the risk of gall stones. Gall stones are composed mostly of cholesterol and Calcium, and may be inhibited by a reduction of these two molecules.
