Suggestions and Administration.
Recommendations:
In adults, 25 grams per day of soy protein may reduce the risk of heart disease.Soy foods and soy-based infant formula are widely used in children, but there are no studies that have determined whether isolated soy protein or isoflavone supplements are useful or safe in this population. Therefore, isolated soy products are not recommended for children at this time.
Dosage and Administration:
Soy isoflavone supplements containing genistin, daidzin and glycitin are available with much smaller amounts of the aglycones genistein, daidzein and glycitein. The percentages of the soy isoflavones present in a standard soy isoflavone supplement reflect the percentages of these substances as found in soybeans and are: genistin, about 50%; daidzin, about 38%;and glycitin, about 12%.A 50-mg dose of soy isoflavones~a typical daily dose~delivers 25 mg of genistin, 19 mg of daidzin and about 6 mg of glycitin. Usually, 40% of the formula is comprised of soy isoflavones. Therefore,to get a dose of 50 milligrams of soy isoflavones, 125 mg daily of soy isoflavones are required. Various observational and epidemiological studies suggest 50 mg daily of soy isoflavones approximates the dose that may have health benefits.Soy isoflavones are also available in some functional food products.
Contradications:Soy isoflavones are contraindicated in those who are hypersensitive to any component of a soy isoflavone-containing product.
Precautions:Pregnant women and nursing mothers should avoid the use of soy isoflavone supplements pending long-term safety studies. Men with prostate cancer should discuss the advisability of the use of soy isoflavones with their physicians before deciding to use them.Women with estrogen receptor-positive tumors should exercise caution in the use of soy isoflavones and should only use them if they are recommended and monitored by a physician.Soy isoflavone intake has been associated with hypothyroidism in some.
Side Effects:For individuals who are not allergic to soy, no serious short-term or long-term side effects have been reported from eating soy foods. Common mild side effects include stomach upset and digestive problems, including constipation and diarrhea.
