Guest guest Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Soy Isoflavones may cut the risk of prostate cancer by 60% A new case-control study recruited 200 Japanese men with prostate cancer ranging from stage 1 (1 man) to stage 4 (24 men). Their dietary intake of soy was evaluated and compared to that of cancer- free men. Intake of the Soy Isoflavones Genistein and Daidzein was significantly associated with a decreased risk of prostate cancer. When comparing the highest average isoflavone intake of 90mg or greater to the lowest of 30.5mg or less, having 90mg or greater of Soy Isoflavones daily was associated with a 58% decreased risk of developing prostate cancer. The study is published in the August 2007 issue of the Journal of Nutrition. J.
