Phyto-Soy®

Soy naturally contains phytoestrogens—plant-sourced, hormone-like compounds, weaker than human estrogens, which may help balance hormone levels. One group of phytoestrogens—isoflavonoids—is found in great concentration in soybeans and soy products. Isoflavonoids appear to positively influence estrogen levels in younger women. Phyto-Soy contains 48 times more isoflavonoids than comparable amounts of tofu, 25 times more than tempeh and 10 times more than roasted soybeans. NSP Phyto-Soy is certified as non-genetically modified (non-GMO). Three capsules supply 36 mg isoflavones, 28 mg of which are genistein glycosides.

Isoflavonoids are a class of flavonoid phenolic compounds, many of which are biologically active. Isoflavonoids and their derivatives are sometimes referred to as phytoestrogens, as many isoflavonoid compounds have biological effects via the estrogen receptor.

Ingredients: Soy isoflavones.

Phytoestrogen is a plant-derived xenoestrogen (see estrogen) not generated within the endocrine system, but consumed by eating plants or manufactured foods.^[1] Also called a “dietary estrogen”, it is a diverse group of naturally occurring nonsteroidal plant compounds that, because of its structural similarity with estradiol (17-β-estradiol), have the ability to cause estrogenic or antiestrogenic effects.^[2] Phytoestrogens are not essential nutrients because their absence from the diet does not cause a disease, nor are they known to participate in any normal biological function.^[2] Common foods containing phytoestrogens are soy protein, beans, oats, barley, rice, coffee, apples, carrots

Recommended Use: Take 1 capsule with a meal three times daily.
