Today I present a wonderful product, known worldwide and a strong performance for our body, it is likely that certain qualities or curiosity and you may know but I hope to offer some new and who do not know if you are not Regular users of it encourage you to consume.
Soy is of Asian origin and belongs to the family of legumes, like peas, beans, chickpeas or lentils. Has a high quality protein content comparable to that of meat, maybe that's why the Chinese "soybean" means "meat pitch."
is not until mid-twentieth century, which was soon consumed soy in the West, although from the XV century expeditions became known.
Today soy is known throughout the world, both for its nutritional properties and for its health benefits.
The soybean crop is adapted quite easily to different geographic media, which has meant that is grown in many parts of the world.
tested Despite the nutritional value of soybeans and their derivatives, as well as their qualities health, the percentage of reserved soybean harvest for human consumption in parts of the world is less than its use as animal feed.
Soy is good for the country because nitrogen sits on land and restoring depleted lands.
In soybean, the scientists have obtained plastic substrates for adhesives, printing inks, soaps, disinfectants, waterproof cement, coatings and other chemicals such as biofuels, etc. human in a scientific application is used in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, food industry, with manufacturing nutritional supplements and other products used in food processing sector.
Soy is a great help in cases of overweight and obesity, also in other diseases such as hypertension, diabetes some even some cardiovascular diseases, this is due to isoflavones, also helps in osteoporosis and hormone-dependent cancers including breast. Isoflavones behave like estrogen, why consumption improves symptoms associated with menopause (hot flashes, bone loss, etc.).. During the woman's fertile period, a risk factor for developing breast cancer or other hormone-dependent is overexposure to human estrogen. If these hormones are at very high levels can cause division and subsequent uncontrolled reproduction of cells, ie cancer. However, soy isoflavones have a much weaker action, so they are likely to reduce the risk of starting the process of cell division exceeded.
soy in humans is prevention of prostate cancer and in this body there are many estrogen receptors and soy helps regulate.
In countries Asia where soy consumption is more widespread, it has been shown that women developed breast cancer to a much lesser extent than those who had not consumed or made in smaller amounts.
But "there are those who doubt the healthy relationship between breast cancer and soy, such as William Helferich, a professor at the University of Illinois (USA). 70% of breast cancers are hormone dependent. Soy isoflavones, especially genistein, have always been in the spotlight as a possible agent capable of enhancing the growth of tumors. "
He and his team have shown that dietary genistein stimulates the growth of estrogen-dependent tumors. Not only that, says he also interfere with drugs such as tamoxifen, are used as preventive therapy in these tumors. The crux of the matter can be in the time given estrogen.
An increased consumption of plant foods combined with a decrease in certain animal protein foods a favorable impact on lowering calories, saturated fat and cholesterol.
