Overview
What Are Super Absorbable Soy Isoflavones?
The beneficial effects of soy consumption have been shown
in numerous studies. In particular, soy isoflavones and their byproducts
have demonstrated a wide array of benefits, including supporting
cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, metabolic and bone health, as well as
healthy hormonal activity and healthy cell division.
The microbial fermentation used in production enhances the bioavailability of soy isoflavones and other nutrients.
Super Absorbable Soy Isoflavones Benefits
- Promotes healthy cell function
- Supports cardiovascular, metabolic & bone health
- Helps maintain already-healthy blood pressure
- Helps support hormonal health
Enhanced Bioavailability
Because soy may
provide significant cell-protective effects, this formulation provides
soy extract standardized to isoflavones plus fermented soyfood (natto)
that may provide additional benefits. Microbial fermentation, which is
central to natto production, enhances the bioavailability of isoflavones
and other nutrients, so only one capsule of Super Absorbable Soy
Isoflavones is required each day
The beneficial effects of soy consumption have been shown in numerous published studies.
In particular, soy isoflavones and their byproducts have demonstrated a
wide array of benefits, including supporting cardiovascular,
cerebrovascular, metabolic and bone health, as well as balanced hormonal
activity and healthy cell division.
The three major isoflavones found in soybeans are genistein,
daidzein and glycitein. Soy isoflavones are sometimes called
phytoestrogens due to their structural similarity to the human estrogen
17beta-estradiol. Soy isoflavones and their byproducts, produced through
bacterial fermentation in the digestive tract, can exert estrogenic or
anti-estrogenic effects, depending on the tissue and type of receptor on
which they are acting. They also have non-hormonal effects, including signal transduction and antioxidant activity.
A number of randomized controlled trials have shown soy isoflavones
support bone health after menopause without the side effects.
Other constituents of soy have also demonstrated effects that help
explain the health and longevity of Asian populations, such as
Okinawans, whose traditional diet includes a great deal of soy.7
In response to increasing evidence that other constituents of soy
may provide significant cell-protective effects, a formulation has been
developed that provides soy extract standardized to isoflavones plus
fermented soyfood (natto) that may provide additional benefits.
Microbial fermentation, which is central to natto production, enhances the bioavailability of isoflavones and other nutrients.8
The enhanced absorption of genistein, daidzein and other nutrients may
be significant enough that only one capsule of Super Absorbable Soy
Isoflavones is required each day. The Soynatto® used in this formula is
produced through yeast fermentation of non-GMO soybeans. Japanese
researchers have found byproducts of this type of yeast fermentation
support normal blood pressure already within normal range, youthful
cardiovascular function and healthy cell function and proliferation
