Most of soy's positive health effects are attributed to its unique combinations of protein and isoflavones. Soy can play an important role in women's health. A healthy balanced diet which includes 25 grams of soy per day may help improve a women's health in many ways:
• Soy may reduce the risk of heart diseases which is the number one cause of death among women in the United States. • Soy can lower the LDL (bad cholesterol) and increase the HDL (good cholesterol). • Soy also acts as an antioxidant. • Soy is a good source of calcium and is easily absorbed by the body. • Soy may help prevent Osteoporosis and help maintain bone density. Soy's isoflavones can increase bone mineral content. • Soy may help alleviate the symptoms of menopause. Soy diminishes the frequency of hot flashes and the discomforts associated with the menopause, making it more tolerable for women to go through the menopausal years.
• Soy reduces the sun damage on the skin and reduces the acnes significantly. Soy leaves a gentle and smooth skin. Asian women used to bathe in soy milk because of the effect soy had on the skin.
