Key Knowledge:
Estrogenic and anti Estrogenic Activities:
Soy isoflavones are known to have weak estrogenic or hormone-like activity. Estrogens are signaling molecules that exert their effects by binding to estrogen receptors within cells ( chemical structures of endogenous estrogens). The estrogen receptor complex interacts with DNA to change the expression of estrogen-responsive genes. Estrogen receptors are present in numerous tissues other than those associated with reproduction, including bone, liver, heart and brain. Soy isoflavones and other phytoestrogens can bind to estrogen receptors, mimicking the effects of estrogen in some tissues and blocking the effects of estrogen in others. Scientists are interested in the tissue-selective activities of phytoestrogens because anti-estroginic effects in reproductive tissue could help reduce the risk of hormone-associated cancers ( breast, Uterine, and prostate) while estrogenic effects in other tissues could help maintain bone density and improve blood lipid profiles (cholesterol levels).
Antioxidants:
Soy isoflavones have antioxidant properties which protects the cardiovascular system of oxidation of LDL (the bad) cholesterol Oxidized LDL cholesterol accumulates in the arteries as patches of fatty buildup which blocks the flow of blood, resulting in atherosclerosis. Soy power capsule inhibits the growth of cells that form this artery clogging plaque. Arteries damaged by atherosclerosis usually form bloods clots. This can lead to a heart attack if the clot goes to the heart, or a stroke if it goes to the brain.
Prevents breast cancer:
Being a weak form of estrogen, isoflavones can compete at estrogen receptor sites, blocking the stronger version nstural produced by the body from exerting it's full effect. Since high blood levels of estrogen are an established risk factor for the breast cancer, weaker forms of estrogen may provide protection against this disease. In combination with ganoderma and other herbs Soy power capsule can prevent estrogen sensitive cancer such as breast cancer.
Strengthens Bones:
Soy power Capsule also plays an important role in protecting and maintaining strong and healthy bones. It can increase bone mineral content and bone density, as well as stimulate bone formation. Thus soy Power Capsule helps prevents and improve osteoporosis.
Suitable For:
* Female with pre-menstruate tension, Post menopausal syndrome.
* Females with unbalanced female hormones, especially declined estrogens, lower bone density or osteoporosis.
