Benefit of soy beans for healthy body

Soy beans are the type that is widely available in East Asia. Soybeans are a unique source of is flavones genistein and daidzein that. This component acts like the hormone estrogen and are known to inhibit cancer cell growth. Genistein in particular has long been believed to work as an anti-cancer power.

Below some benefits of soybeans for the health:

- Research at the cellular level showed genistein inhibits prostate cancer cell growth and increases cancer cell death. Furthermore, research indicates genistein increase the ability of radiation to kill prostate cancer cells.
- Isoflavones also contains phytoestrogens, substances similar to estrogen. Therefore, isoflavones commonly referred to as a natural substitute for estrogen or phytoestrogen. If consumed regularly, soybean can improve skin elasticity and reduce the effects of premature aging.
- Reduce the risk of heart disease proteins and isoflavones present in soybean, assists in reducing LDL cholesterol ("bad" cholesterol) and decreases the likelihood of blood clots. This in turn, reduces the risk of heart disease and stroke. Research has shown that consumption of milk containing 25 grams of soybean protein for nine weeks resulted in a decrease of 5% on average LDL cholesterol
- Prevent osteoporosis.
Soybean protein helps in better absorption of calcium in the bones. Isoflavones are present in soybean foods work to slow bone loss and inhibit bone breakdown, which in turn prevents osteoporosis.
- Keeping weight on a high fiber content of soybean as a tool for management (set) of body weight. This low glycemic index (GI) food regulates blood sugar and insulin fluctuations. Therefore, it can help control hunger. This will greatly help you in your weight loss process.

However, among the many benefits, the study also shows the dangers of soybean consumption. Because isoflavones can act like the hormone estrogen, this substance will inhibit the natural production of hormones. In women, this will cause disruption and lead to infertility ovulation cycle. To maximize benefits, choose a natural soy such as tofu or soybean milk.
