Effect of genistein to control postmenopausal symptoms and bone loss.:

Post-menopausal women suffer symptoms like hot flushes and they are also at a higher risk of bone fractures due to osteoporosis.?This is attributable to a lower level of estrogen secretion by the ovaries of these women.Albertazzi P et al conducted a clinical study in 1998 whereby 104 post-menopausal women were given a daily supplement of 60 g of isolated soy protein or placebo (casein) (Albertazzi P., et al 1998).

 By the fourth week of the clinical trial, subjects that were given soy supplement showed a significant reduction in the mean number of hot flushes per 24 hours. By week 12, there was a 15% (p less than 0.01) decrease in the number of hot flushes in soy group subjects compared to the control.

 This study confirms that genistein which has weak estrogenic property is able to counteract the natural loss of estrogen in post-menopausal women.Genistein is now commercially available as health food to combat such symptoms and bone loss.A note of caution however; genistein at high concentration in the body can work the reverse; it exhibits anti-estrogenic activity.This activity may be linked to genistein anti-tumour effect on breast cancer
