Soy Components:8.6).Soy saponins.
Soybeans contain significant amounts of saponins, about 5% of dry weight.
Soy saponins have cholesterol-lowering properties and are also likely to facilitate the absorption of isoflavones from the gut.
Saponins may also enhance immunity and provide a variety of anti-cancer activities.
For example, soy saponins inhibit DNA synthesis in tumour cells and decrease the growth of human epidermoid and cervical carcinoma cells in vitro.
Soy saponins also inhibit the expression of the Epstein-Barr viral genome.
