In a study of of Positive effects of soy isoflavone food on survival of breast cancer patients in china to evaluate the association of soy isoflavone food consumption with breast cancer prognosis, posted in US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, indicated that after a median follow up of 52.1 months (range, 9-60 months), a total of 79 breast cancer related deaths were recorded in our study, risk being inversely associated with a high intake of soy isoflavone. With an average intake of soy isoflavone above 17.3 mg/day, the mortality of breast cancer can be reduced by about 38-36%. We also found the decreased breast cancer death with high soy
protein intake, with a HR (95% CI) of 0.71 (0.52-0.98). Stratified
analysis with reference to the ER status, further demonstrated a better prognosis of ER positive breast cancer with a high intake of soy isoflavone (HR 0.59, 0.40-0.93)
