In a study of "Effects of replacing meat with soyabean in the diet on sex hormone concentrations in healthy adult males." by Habito RC, Montalto J, Leslie E, Ball MJ. (School of Biological and Chemical Sciences, Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia.). A randomised crossover dietary intervention study was performed to evaluate the effects of replacing meat protein in the diet with a soyabean product, tofu, on blood concentrations of testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, androstanediol glucuronide, oestradiol, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), and the free androgen index (total testosterone concentration/SHBG concentration x 100; FAI). Forty-two healthy adult males aged 35-62 years were studied, researchers found that Adjusting for weight change revealed SHBG to be 8.8% higher on the tofu diet (mean difference 3 (95% CI 0.7, 5.2) nmol/l; P = 0.01) and testosterone:oestradiol to be significantly lower, P = 0.049). Thus, replacement of meat protein with soyabean protein, as tofu, may have a minor effect on biologically-active sex hormones, which could influence prostate cancer risk. However, other factors or mechanisms may also be responsible for the different incidence rates in men on different diets.

Soy and Platelet Aggregation
Soy and Ovarian Function
In a study of "Effects of soy foods on ovarian function in premenopausal women." by Wu AH, Stanczyk FZ, Hendrich S, Murphy PA, Zhang C, Wan P, Pike MC. Posted in the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, twenty healthy cycling premenopausal women (ten Asians and ten non-Asians) participated in a 7-month soy intervention study which was designed to investigate the effect of supplementation on ovarian function. Asian soy foods (tofu, soymilk, green soybean peas) in the amount of approximately 32 mg of isoflavones per day were added to the women's diets for three menstrual cycles, researchers found that supplementation using traditional soy foods reduced serum oestradiol levels among Asian participants in this study. Differences in the type of soy products (i.e. traditional soy foods versus soy protein products), amount of isoflavones, and race/ethnicity of participants may have contributed to the divergent results. Larger soy intervention studies designed specifically to include participants of different race/ethnicities and using both traditional soy foods and soy protein products providing comparable doses of isoflavones are needed to definitively determine the effect of soy on ovarian function
Soy and Premenopausal Women and Men
In a study of "Hormonal Effects of Soy in Premenopausal Women and Men" by Mindy S. Kurzer
Posted in The Journal of Nutrition, researcher found that the reported studies suggest that soy consumption exerts small effects on hormones in both men and premenopausal women. Although these effects are generally in a beneficial direction, their clinical significance is yet to be established. The largest observed effects have been reductions in urinary estrogens and estrogen metabolites in women. Future studies should focus on elucidating the responsible components and the optimal forms and doses as well as the dietary, environmental and genetic factors that influence particular subgroups to respond to soy. These factors may include ethnicity as well as individual phytoestrogen metabolism. Finally, it is of great importance to establish the clinical relevance of these small differences.

Soy and Cognitive Function
In a new study of "Soy isoflavones and cognitive function." by Yoon-Bok Lee, Hyong Joo Lee, Heon Soo Sohn in The Journal of nutritional biochemistry (2005) Volume: 16, Issue: 11, Pages: 641-649
Soy and Anxiety
They concluded that the soy-rich diets didn't increase estrogen levels in the proestrus rats. The researchers conjecture that instead the isoflavones enhanced the anxiety-reducing effects of estrogen already in the proestrus rats--a benefit that didn't extend to other females in the study.

Soy and Immune system
In a study of "Soy isoflavones modulate immune function in healthy postmenopausal women" by Tracy A Ryan-Borchers, Jean Soon Park, Boon P Chew, Michelle K McGuire, Lisa R Fournier and Kathy A Beerma, researcher found that Isoflavone intervention in postmenopausal women resulted in higher (P < 0.05) B cell populations and lower (P < 0.05) plasma concentrations of 8-hydroxy-2-deoxy-guanosine, an oxidative marker of DNA damage. Isoflavone treatment did not significantly influence concentrations of interferon γ, interleukin 2, tumor necrosis factor α, or C-reactive protein in plasma or of 8-isoprostane in urine and concluded that soymilk and supplemental isoflavones modulate B cell populations and appear to be protective against DNA damage in postmenopausal women.
Soy and Insomnia
According to the reported of "Soy may ease sleep problems in older women" in Reuter health in an article of "The estrogen-like compounds found in soy could help postmenopausal women get a better night's sleep", according to a small study with women given isoflavones, researchers found that 90 percent reported "moderate or intense" insomnia at the beginning of the study, while 37 percent did after four months; in the placebo group, the percentages were 95 percent and 63 percent, respectively. Researchers concluded that without knowing the source of postmenopausal insomnia, the researchers cannot say why soy seemed to alleviate it for many of the women taking the isoflavones.
Soy and Weight Loss
In a study of "Soybean beta-conglycinin peptone suppresses food intake and gastric emptying by increasing plasma cholecystokinin levels in rats." by Nishi T, Hara H, Tomita F., researchers found that The suppression of food intake by beta-conglycinin peptone was abolished by an intravenous injection of devazepide, a selective peripheral CCK receptor antagonist. The beta-conglycinin peptone infusion strongly suppressed gastric emptying with marked increases in portal CCK levels. We also observed that the beta-conglycinin peptone dose dependently and more potently stimulated CCK release from isolated dispersed mucosal cells of the rat jejunum than did beta-conglycinin itself. This stimulation corresponded to the binding activity of the peptide or protein to solubilized components of the rat jejunum membrane as evaluated by surface plasmon biosensor. They concluded that These results indicate that beta-conglycinin peptone suppresses food intake, and this effect may be due to beta-conglycinin peptone in the lumen stimulating endogenous CCK release with direct acceptance to the intestinal cells.
Soybean may be a good food to suppress your appetite to prevent weight gain, I belive
Soy and Fibroids
In a study of "Lignan and isoflavone excretion in relation to uterine fibroids: a case-control study of young to middle-aged women in the United States" by Charlotte Atkinson, Johanna W Lampe, Delia Scholes, Chu Chen, Kristiina Wähälä and Stephen M Schwart, American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol. 84, No. 3, 587-593, September 2006, researchers suggest a modest inverse association between lignan excretion and uterine fibroid risk. Whether this relation represents an effect of lignans per se or of other constituents of lignan-containing foods on the development of uterine fibroids remains to be determined. No association was found between isoflavone excretion and uterine fibroids; however, the intake of soy foods, the primary source of isoflavones, was low in this population.

Applied Biology and Chemistry, JPN) UEHARA MARIKO (Tokyo Univ. Agriculture, Dep. Applied Biology and Chemistry, JPN) in the Soy Protein Research of Fifty-four young women with premenstrual syndrome participated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled intervention trial. They were divided into two groups: Twenty-eight women took a 20mg/day isoflavone supplement (20mg/day IF group); 26 women took a 40mg/day isoflavone supplement (40mg/day IF group), researcher found that there was a trend toward a decrease in the estradiol/progesterone ratio among women with moderate to serious symptoms, and a decrease in prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) among women with serious symptoms. Independent of symptom severity, the serotonin tended to increase among individuals in the 40mg/day IF group. Prolactin tended to increase as symptom severity increased, and was significantly lower in the 40mg/day IF group compared to the placebo among those with severe symptoms. Sex-hormone binding globulin levels tended to increase among the 40mg/day IF group when symptoms were severe. Only twenty percent of subjects were equol producers, similar to the level observed among Westerners. (author abst.)

Soy and Kidney function In diabetes
In a study of "Beneficiary effect of dietary soy protein on lowering plasma levels of lipid and improving kidney function in type II diabetes with nephropathy" by L Azadbakht, R Shakerhosseini, S Atabak, M Jamshidian, Y Mehrabiand A Esmaill-Zadeh, researchers found that The significant reduction that was seen in proteinuria in this study could be attributed to reduction of glomerular filtration rate, intraluminal pressure and increased glomerular resistance. The different results in different studies could contribute to the different amounts of protein consumption and the existence of patients in different stages of nephropathy. As a result of reduction in urinary urea nitrogen and proteinuria, it is estimated that soy protein intake could improve renal function in these patients. This point is noticeable in kidney disease also. Although soy-protein intake may effectively decrease the hyperfiltration that antedates the onset of proteinuria in type I and type II diabetes, it may not protect from the hypertensive damage to the kidneys that commonly occurs in type II diabetes patients.
Remember that study only provide us the evident of potential use of soy in treating the indicated diseases, clinical trial will need to confirm them.

Soy and Lung Cancer of Non smokers
In a study of Isoflavone intake and risk of lung cancer: a prospective cohort study in Japan" by Taichi Shimazu, Manami Inoue, Shizuka Sasazuki, Motoki Iwasaki, Norie Sawada, Taiki Yamaji, and Shoichiro Tsugane, for the Japan Public Health Center–based Prospective Study Group. The result during 11 y (671,864 person-years) of follow-up, we documented 481 male and 178 female lung cancer cases. In men we found an inverse association between isoflavone intake and risk of lung cancer in never smokers (n = 13,051; multivariate HR in the highest compared with the lowest quartile of isoflavone intake: 0.43; 95% CI: 0.21, 0.90; P for trend = 0.024) but not in current or past smokers. A similar, nonsignificant inverse association was seen in never-smoking women (n = 38,211; HR: 0.67; 95% CI: 0.41, 1.10; P for trend = 0.135). We also tested effect modification by smoking status (P for interaction = 0.085 in men and 0.055 in men and women combined), researchers concluded that In a large-scale, population-based, prospective study in Japan, isoflavone intake was associated with a decreased risk of lung cancer in never smokers.

Soy and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing hormone (LH)
In a study of "Effects of soy protein and isoflavones on circulating hormone concentrations in pre- and post-menopausal women: a systematic review and meta-analysis." by Hooper L, Ryder JJ, Kurzer MS, Lampe JW, Messina MJ, Phipps WR, Cassidy A., researchers found that Forty-seven studies (11 of pre-, 35 of post- and 1 of perimenopausal women) were included. In premenopausal women, meta-analysis suggested that soy or isoflavone consumption did not affect primary outcomes estradiol, estrone or SHBG concentrations, but significantly reduced secondary outcomes FSH and LH [by approximately 20% using standardized mean difference (SMD), P = 0.01 and 0.05, respectively]. Menstrual cycle length was increased by 1.05 days (95% CI 0.13, 1.97, 10 studies), and concluded that Isoflavone-rich soy products decrease FSH and LH in premenopausal women and may increase estradiol in post-menopausal women. The clinical implications of these modest hormonal changes remain to be determined.

Soy as Estrogen Agonists/Antagonists.
In a study of "Biological effects of a diet of soy protein rich in isoflavones on the menstrual cycle of premenopausal women" by A Cassidy, S Bingham and KD Setchell, Dunn Clinical Nutrition Centre, Cambridge, UK. Soy protein (60 g containing 45 mg isoflavones) given daily for 1 mo significantly (P < 0.01), researchers found that Plasma estradiol concentrations increased in the follicular phase and cholesterol concentrations decreased 9.6%. Similar responses occur with tamoxifen, an antiestrogen undergoing clinical trial as a prophylactic agent in women at high risk for breast cancer. These effects are presumed to be due to nonsteroidal estrogens of the isoflavone class, which behave as partial estrogen agonists/antagonists.
Now you have the evidence of soy as estrogen agonist, it should be beneficiary for women with menstrual disorder, but further studies and clinical trials should be done to confirm the result.

Soy and Bladder cancer
According to a study of " Soy Phytochemicals Prevent Orthotopic Growth and Metastasis of Bladder Cancer in Mice by Alterations of Cancer Cell Proliferation and Apoptosis and Tumor Angiogenesis." by Ajita V. Singh, Adrian A. Franke, George L. Blackburn, and Jin-Rong Zhou, researchers indicated in the section of "Effects of soy phytochemicals on orthotopic growth and metastasis of bladder tumors", the intrabladder 253J B-V human bladder tumor model was used as a clinically relevant in vivo model to evaluate the effects of SPC and genistin on tumor growth and metastasis. We used genistin because it is the natural form of genistein in soy. We used SPC because it represents soy phytochemicals that are consumed by humans. Dietary soy treatments did not significantly reduce body weight or food intake (data not shown). The effects of dietary treatments on tumor growth and metastasis are shown in Fig. 5 . Tumors from those treated with SPC and genistin were reduced by 52% (P < 0.05) and 54% (P < 0.05), respectively, compared with the control group ( Fig. 5A).....
In the section of "Effects of soy phytochemicals on tumor apoptosis, angiogenesis, and proliferation." researchers also indicated that tumor cell apoptotic index and tumor angiogenesis were measured by TUNEL assay and factor VIII staining, respectively. Apoptotic indices of primary tumors in mice treated with SPC and genistin were significantly increased by 263% (P < 0.01) and 265% (P < 0.01), respectively, whereas microvessel densities of primary tumors in mice treated with SPC and genistin were significantly reduced by 35% (P < 0.05) and 50% (P < 0.05), respectively, compared with the control.
In conclusion, researchers wrote that we found that genistin and SPC significantly inhibited the growth of a poorly differentiated human bladder tumor associated with induction of tumor cell apoptosis and inhibition of tumor angiogenesis. In particular, SPC, but not genistin, significantly inhibited lung metastases and reduced NF-κB expression and circulating level of IGF-I. The results from this study, together with our previous studies, suggest that SPC may contain potent antimetastasis component(s). The results from our studies suggest further clinical studies should be warranted to apply soy phytochemicals, such as SPC, as a potent prevention regimen for bladder cancer progression. This orthotopic human bladder tumor model also provides a clinically relevant experimental tool for assessing potential preventive activity of other dietary components against bladder tumor growth and metastasis.
Now, we have contradiction evidences that soy can cause and treat bladder cancer in studies. Further of clarification should be necessary.

Soy Allergic Effects
According to the study of A FARRP Ph.D. student, Ben Remington, under the joint supervision of Profs. Taylor and Baumert, has initiated research on soybean allergens. The clinical picture on the reactivity of soy-allergic individuals with various soy proteins is far from clear. Different individuals seem to react to different soy allergens although differences also appear to be influenced by the selection of methods and perhaps even by the selection of soy-based materials to use in the research. Thus far, research by other groups has determined that Gly m 5 and Gly m 6 (conglycinin and glycinin, respectively) are major soybean allergens. Gly m 3 (profilin) and Gly m 4 (a Bet v 1 homologue) are other important soy allergens. An oleosin from soy, called P34, is another potential soy allergen. The soy trypsin inhibitor (STI) has been identified as a minor allergen. FARRP is particularly interested in the levels of these allergenic proteins in various soy-based ingredients. (Source)

Soy Treatment for Prostate Cancer
According to the study of "Lycopene and soy isoflavones in the treatment of prostate cancer." by Vaishampayan U, Hussain M, Banerjee M, Seren S, Sarkar FH, Fontana J, Forman JD, Cher ML, Powell I, Pontes JE, Kucuk O. of population included 71 eligible patients who had 3 successive rising PSA levels or a minimum PSA of 10 ng/ml at 2 successive evaluations prior to starting therapy. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive a tomato extract capsule containing 15 mg of lycopene alone (n = 38) or together with a capsule containing 40 mg of a soy isoflavone mixture (n = 33) twice daily orally for a maximum of 6 mo. One patient on the lycopene arm did not receive therapy due to his inability to ingest the study pill. There was no decline in serum PSA in either group qualifying for a partial or complete response. However, 35 of 37 (95%) evaluable patients in the lycopene group and 22 of 33 (67%) evaluable patients in the lycopene plus soy isoflavone group achieved stable disease described as stabilization in serum PSA level, researchers found that that lycopene and soy isoflavones have activity in prostate cancer patients with PSA relapse disease and may delay progression of both hormone-refractory and hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. However, there may not be an additive effect between the 2 compounds when taken together. Future studies are warranted to further investigate the efficacy of lycopene and soy isoflavones in prostate cancer as well as the mechanism of potential negative interaction between them.

Soy and The Adverse Effects in Patients with Prostate Cancer
In a study of "Soy isoflavones in conjunction with radiation therapy in patients with prostate cancer." by Ahmad IU, Forman JD, Sarkar FH, Hillman GG, Heath E, Vaishampayan U, Cher ML, Andic F, Rossi PJ, Kucuk O. Forty-two patients with prostate cancer were randomly assigned to receive 200 mg soy isoflavone (Group 1) or placebo (Group 2) daily for 6 mo beginning with the first day of radiation therapy, which was administered in 1.8 to 2.5 Gy fractions for a total of 73.8 to 77.5 Gy. Adverse effects of radiation therapy on bladder, bowel, and sexual function were assessed by a self-administered quality of life questionnaire at 3 and 6 mo. Only 26 and 27 patients returned completed questionnaires at 3 and 6 mo, respectively. At each time point, urinary, bowel, and sexual adverse symptoms induced by radiation therapy were decreased in the soy isoflavone group compared to placebo group. At 3 mo, soy-treated patients had less urinary incontinence, less urgency, and better erectile function as compared to the placebo group. At 6 mo, the symptoms in soy-treated patients were further improved as compared to the placebo group. These patients had less dripping/leakage of urine (7.7% in Group 1 vs. 28.4% in Group 2), less rectal cramping/diarrhea (7.7% vs. 21.4%), and less pain with bowel movements (0% vs. 14.8%) than placebo-treated patients. There was also a higher overall ability to have erections (77% vs. 57.1%), researcher concluded that soy isoflavones taken in conjunction with radiation therapy could reduce the urinary, intestinal, and sexual adverse effects in patients with prostate cancer.

Soy, Fermentation Increases the Bioavailability of Isoflavones Effects
According to the study of "Effect of soy isoflavone supplementation on markers of oxidative stress in men and women." by Djuric Z, Chen G, Doerge DR, Heilbrun LK, Kucuk O., Researchers found that the result indiacted that Blood samples were obtained at weekly intervals for 3 weeks from the women taking 50-mg isoflavones once daily and the men taking 50-mg isoflavones twice daily. Plasma levels of genistein and daidzein increased after supplementation with maximal levels occurring at 2 weeks for the women while levels in men kept increasing over the 3 weeks of study. There was wide variation between individuals in the levels of isoflavones achieved. Mean levels of 5-hydroxymethyl-2'-deoxyuridine (5-OHmdU) in DNA from nucleated blood cells decreased after 1 week of supplementation in the women, with a decrease of 47% in mean 5-OHmdU levels after 3 weeks. In men, mean 5-OHmdU levels did not decrease until after 3 weeks of supplementation, at which there was 61% decrease. Mean plasma levels of 8-isoprostanes were not changed appreciably in either men or women.. They concluded that These pilot results suggest that soy isoflavone supplementation decreases levels of oxidative DNA damage in humans, and this may be a mechanism behind the cancer-preventive effects of soy isoflavones.

How to make creamier (thicker) soy milk
Use 100 grams of soybeans instead of 70 grams. Note that machines shipped after March, 2002 includes a 100-gram Measure Cup. You can check your User's Manual to confirm this. Adding between one and two tablespoons (1/16 to 1/8 cup) of rice or oats (oatmeal, oat bran, quick oats) to soaked soybeans will make thicker soy milk. There are detailed recipes packaged with your SoyaJoy Soy Milk Maker. Rice needs to be soaked for the same amount of time as soybeans, but oatmeal or quick oats can be added without soaking.
Soy milk recipe -- tastes like Edensoy
- Soak one measure of dry soybeans for 6 to 12 hours.
- Load and run soymilk maker as per the directions that came with the machine.
- Cool the milk in the refrigerator till it is at least lukewarm.
- Add 1/4 tsp. of salt.
- Add 2 Tbs. of sugar.
- Add 3 Tbs. of Barley Malt.
- Add 1 Tbs. Of Vanilla flavoring.
Each batch yields approx. 1/3 gallon of soy milk. I typically make 2 batches at a time and store it in a plastic container in the refrigerator. (Source)

Soy and Hormonal Effects
In a study of " Potential risks and benefits of phytoestrogen-rich diets." by Cassidy A. (Biosciences Division, Unilever Research, Colworth House, Sharnbrook, Bedfordshire, UK, MK 44 ILQ. aedincassidy@clara.co.uk), researcher indicated that it is known that dietary phytoestrogens are metabolised by intestinal bacteria, absorbed, conjugated in the liver, circulated in plasma and excreted in urine. Recent studies have addressed quantitatively what happens to isoflavones following ingestion--with pure compound and stable isotope data to compliment recent pharmacokinetic data for soy foods. The limited studies conducted so far in humans clearly confirm that soya isoflavones can exert hormonal effects. These effects may be of benefit in the prevention of many of the common diseases observed in Western populations (such as breast cancer, prostate cancer, menopausal symptoms, osteoporosis) where the diet is typically devoid of these biologically active naturally occurring compounds, but concluded However since biological effects are dependent on many factors including dose, duration of use, protein binding affinity, individual metabolism and intrinsic oestrogenic state, further clinical studies are necessary to determine the potential health effects of these compounds in specific population groups. However we currently know little about age related differences in exposure to these compounds and there are few guidelines on optimal dose for specific health outcomes.

Among these phytochemicals is the broad class of nonsteroidal estrogens called phytoestrogens, and in the past decade there has been considerable interest in the role of isoflavones because of their relatively high concentrations in soy protein. The isoflavones in modest amounts of ingested soy protein are biotransformed by intestinal microflora, are absorbed, undergo enterohepatic recycling, and reach circulating concentrations that exceed by several orders of magnitude the amounts of endogenous estrogens and concluded that these phytoestrogens and their metabolites have many potent hormonal and nonhormonal activities that may explain some of the biological effects of diets rich in phytoestrogens.

Soy and Liver Cancer
According to the study of THE ROLE OF HAELAN 851® NUTRITION IN RELIEVING LEUKOPENIA IN MICE WITH LIVER CANCER, U.S. Research Reports Inc.
Research Report No. 109, in summary, the article reported that The results of this study suggests that nutritional supplementation with Haelan 851, Platinum Formula, oral nutritional beverage, on a daily basis, for a period of one week before and eight days after the inoculation in mice with ascitic type liver cancer cell H. may relieve the leukopenia induced by cyclophosphamide in varying degrees. The nutritional support with Haelan 851, Platinum Formula, oral nutritional beverage has shown a comparatively evident dose effective relationship. The white cell increased rate eleveted to 86.8% in the group given the undiluted Haelan 851, Platinum Formula, oral liquid for nutritional support. The P value is less than 0.01, which shows a very marked significance.

Soy and Autoimmune Diseases
In A report from MEDICAL JOURNALIST REPORT OF INNOVATIVE BIOLOGICS in an article of "Ingesting Sterols/Sitosterolins from Plant Fats Induce Potent Human Immunomodulatory Improvement" By Morton Walker, D.P.M., researcher indicated that the clinical experience of Dr. Morris has been verified by studies recorded in the medical literature 1 and by public announcement. For example, Patrick J.D. Bouic, Ph.D., professor of immunology and chief special scientist in the Department of Medical Microbiology at the University of Stellenbosch, Cape Town, South Africa, has demonstrated that plant sterols and sitosterolins are potent immune modulators capable of reversing abnormalities of the immune system.

Soy and Tuberculosis and HIV Disease
In A report from MEDICAL JOURNALIST REPORT OF INNOVATIVE BIOLOGICS in an article of "Ingesting Sterols/Sitosterolins from Plant Fats Induce Potent Human Immunomodulatory Improvement" By Morton Walker, D.P.M., researcher indicated that On October 7, 1997, Dr. Bouic's university's press office announced: "The University of Stellenbosch Medical Faculty led by Professor Bouic in the Department of Medical Microbiology, and his colleagues in other departments, have conducted ten years of clinical trials in immune modulation, tuberculosis [TB], and HIV disease. By employing plant fats, patients affected by various autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus, certain cancers, and other manifestations of dysfunctional immune systems have experienced dissipation of their health problems. TB patients have recovered from their illnesses more quickly. And infected HIV patients maintain their immune cells over extended periods with no overt signs of illness progression.

Soy and Sex and long-term soy diets
In a study of "Sex and long-term soy diets affect the metabolism and excretion of soy isoflavones in humans." by Lu LJ, Anderson KE., researchers found that During 1 mo of daily soy ingestion in a metabolic unit [1.065 L (36 oz) soymilk, providing 80-210 mg of each isoflavone daily], women initially excreted more isoflavone conjugates in urine than did men. Recoveries of conjugates of genistein, daidzein, and equol were 24%, 66%, and 28% of the amounts ingested in women, respectively, and 15%, 47%, and 15%, respectively, of those in men. A progressive decrease in urinary excretion of genistein and daidzein was observed in women but not in men during the study. At least 10% of ingested daidzin was excreted in urine as equol conjugate in one man and one woman after the first soy ingestion. Three more women but no more men developed the ability to produce and excrete large amounts of equol. Absorption rate constants (k(e)) of the isoflavones were estimated to be 0.24-0.50 h(-1). The elimination rates (k(e)) for genistein, daidzein, and equol were 0.1, 0.16, and 0.08 h(-1), respectively, in women and 0.19, 0.25, and 0.13 h(-1), respectively, in men. Thus, the excretion half-life values of genistein were longer in women (7, 4, and 9 h, respectively) than in men (4, 3, and 5 h, respectively) after the first soy ingestion. The excretion half-life shortened progressively in women but lengthened progressively in men over the study period.
They suggested that isoflavone metabolism and disposition were affected by the duration of soy ingestion and by sex.

Soy and Antioxidants
In study of "Effect of soy isoflavone supplementation on markers of oxidative stress in men and women." by Djuric Z, Chen G, Doerge DR, Heilbrun LK, Kucuk O., according to the researchers, Blood samples were obtained at weekly intervals for 3 weeks from the women taking 50-mg isoflavones once daily and the men taking 50-mg isoflavones twice daily. Plasma levels of genistein and daidzein increased after supplementation with maximal levels occurring at 2 weeks for the women while levels in men kept increasing over the 3 weeks of study. There was wide variation between individuals in the levels of isoflavones achieved. Mean levels of 5-hydroxymethyl-2'-deoxyuridine (5-OHmdU) in DNA from nucleated blood cells decreased after 1 week of supplementation in the women, with a decrease of 47% in mean 5-OHmdU levels after 3 weeks. In men, mean 5-OHmdU levels did not decrease until after 3 weeks of supplementation, at which there was 61% decrease. Mean plasma levels of 8-isoprostanes were not changed appreciably in either men or women.
They conclude that These pilot results suggest that soy isoflavone supplementation decreases levels of oxidative DNA damage in humans, and this may be a mechanism behind the cancer-preventive effects of soy isoflavones.

Soy and thyroid cancer
According to the study of " Phytoestrogens and thyroid cancer risk: the San Francisco Bay Area thyroid cancer study. by Horn-Ross PL, Hoggatt KJ, Lee MM.
Phytoestrogen consumption was assessed via a food-frequency questionnaire and a newly developed nutrient database. The consumption of traditional and nontraditional soy-based foods and alfalfa sprouts were associated with reduced risk of thyroid cancer. Consumption of "western" foods with added soy flour or soy protein did not affect risk. Of the seven specific phytoestrogenic compounds examined, the isoflavones, daidzein and genistein [odds ratio (OR), 0.70; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.44-1.1; and OR, 0.65, 95% CI, 0.41-1.0, for the highest versus lowest quintile of daidzein and genistein, respectively] and the lignan, secoisolariciresinol (OR, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.35-0.89, for the highest versus lowest quintile) were most strongly associated with risk reduction. Findings were similar for white and Asian women and for pre- and postmenopausal women.
Researchers concluded that our findings suggest that thyroid cancer prevention via dietary modification of soy and/or phytoestrogen intake in other forms may be possible but warrants further research at this time.

Soy and Breast Cancer
Do you believe that soy can prevent breast cancer?. According to the study of "Dietary genistein negates the inhibitory effect of tamoxifen on growth of estrogen-dependent human breast cancer (MCF-7) cells implanted in athymic mice". by Ju YH, Doerge DR, Allred KF, Allred CD, Helferich WG. Cancer Res. 2002 May 1;62(9):2474-7., researchers found that Dietary genistein negated/overwhelmed the inhibitory effect of TAM on MCF-7 tumor growth, lowered E2 level in plasma, and increased expression of E-responsive genes (e.g., pS2, PR, and cyclin D1). Therefore, caution is warranted for postmenopausal women consuming dietary genistein while on TAM therapy for E-responsive breast cancer.
Now you have it. Prevention is better than treatment, so make and drink your soy drink. It does not taste too bad,

Soy and Atherosclerosis.
researchers indicated before the reseach that Recently, it was shown that substituting soy nuts for nonsoy protein in a therapeutic lifestyle change (TLC) diet lowered systolic and diastolic blood pressure by 9.9% and 6.8%, respectively, in postmenopausal women with hypertension and by 5.2% and 2.9%. After the researching, they concluded the reduction in soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 with soy nuts in women with hypertension suggests an improvement in endothelial function that may reflect an overall improvement in the underlying inflammatory process underlying atherosclerosis.

Tofu Recipes - Ginger Tofu
Here is another recipe for you, and hope you like it.
- 1 lb of firm tofu
- 1 1/2 ts of fresh, grated ginger
- 1 t of roasted sesame oil
- 1 minced garlic clove
- 2 tb of tamari
- 1 1/4 c of water
- 1 1/2 tb of arrowroot
Slice the tofu into small rectangles of 1/4--1/2-inch thickness and place them in a shallow dish or baking pan.
Mix together the ginger, sesame oil, garlic, tamari and water.
Pour this mixture over the tofu and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
(If desired, the tofu may be placed in the refrigerator to marinate for several hours or overnight).
Remove the marinated tofu from the liquid, reserving the liquid to make the sauce.
Place the tofu on a well-oiled cookie sheet and bake at 375 deg for 35-40 minutes, or until the desired crispness is reached (the longer the tofu bakes the firmer and crisper it becomes).
To make the sauce, mix the arrowroot with the marinade.
Place the mixture in a small saucepan and bring to a boil.
Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened.
Ginger Tofu may be served with or without the sauce.
With the sauce, serve it over a bed of rice, millet, buckwheat, or pasta.
Add your favorite stir-fried veggies and you have a colorful or nutritious meal.
Ginger Tofu may also be added to a vegetable stew.
