Soy Isoflavanoids, Genistein and Daidzein
Isoflavones are phytoestrogens that are mainly found in soy but can be found in other legumes as well. The most highly researched isoflavones are genistein and daidzein. Soy isoflavones (genistein and daidzein) have been shown to mimic the effects of estrogen, genistein structurally resembles estrogen and acts as a selective estrogen receptor modulator.
Since soy is one of the most well-known phytoestrogens, the most researched and also the most controversial the 2011 report by the North American Menopause Society states that soy-based isoflavones established safety and modest efficacy.

Ingredient Benefits
Helps to balance blood sugar to reduce excess weight gain
Other findings in the use of soy isoflavones and especially genistein supplementation, is the positive effect on glucose metabolism and the reduction in both insulin levels and insulin resistance, which could help decrease fatty tissue in the body and the risk of metabolic syndrome.
Provides relief of menopause mood symptoms
For other menopausal symptoms such as mood dysfunction, soy isoflavones can cross the blood-brain barrier and can bind to estrogen receptors in the brain hippocampus and therefore may have antidepressant effects.
Promotes hormone balance in menopause
Soy researchers want to better understand how soy interacts with specific estrogen receptors and the inflammatory process of menopause. It is known that soy isoflavones are less effective than estrogen in reducing hot flashes. However, it was discovered that prolonged daily supplementation has been shown to reduce menopause related inflammatory impacts on areas such as weight gain, bone health and brain health.
