WHAT ARE ISOFLAVONES?
Isoflavones are phytochemicals (chemicals that come from plants). Isoflavones are present in plant proteins and produce biological effects in animals and humans who consume them. Studies have shown that soybeans may be the richest source of isoflavones. Isoflavones are sometimes referred to as phytoestrogens (plant estrogens), because chemically speaking, they act like estrogens, though they are weaker than the estrogens produced by the human body.
HOW MUCH ISOFLAVONES DOES A PORTION OF NATUR-A SOY BEVERAGE CONTAIN?
Every 250 mL (1 cup) portion of Natur-a soy beverage contains 50 mg of isoflavones.
