Soy isoflavones in soy foods are good for human health
Soy isoflavones in soy foods are beneficial nutrients for human health, especially for women's health. Let's take a look at the benefits of soy isoflavones.
① Estrogen-like activity - soy isoflavone is a selective estrogen receptor modulator, that is to say, it will play the same effect as estrogen when the human estrogen level is low, if the human estrogen level is too high, it has the effect of inhibiting estrogen, can do bidirectional conditioning estrogen.
Moreover, meta-analysis also showed that soy isoflavones had no significant effect on male hormone levels, so men should not worry about the intake of soy isoflavones.
② Improve postmenopausal osteoporosis -- postmenopausal estrogen deficiency can lead to enhanced osteoclast activity, resulting in bone loss and bone arrangement structure changes, resulting in increased bone fragility prone to fracture.
Soy isoflavones show weak estrogen effects in postmenopausal women. It can bind to estrogen receptors of osteoblasts to strengthen the activity of osteoblasts, promote the formation, excretion and mineralization of bone matrix to improve osteoporosis.
