Benefits for Breast Tempe

Scientific Evidence that soy beneficial for the prevention of cancer appear to continue to grow. Nuts are rich in protein content are believed to be having an enormous potential against the growth of breast cancer, especially if consumed since puberty.

Researchers from Georgetown Medical Center research report published in British Journal of Cancer emphasizes that women should eat high ABG made of soy if you want to avoid the risk of breast cancer. In soybeans, according to investigators contained a kind of important chemical called genistein that is claimed to be effective against cancer.

However, major challenges still facing researchers in the use of these substances in soy genistein. They have to make sure how soy can be used appropriately to provide protection for adolescent women of this malignant disease.

"The timing seems important in the use of this bioactive food, and if we can reveal why these substances can protect, then we can provide breast cancer prevention in a wider scope" said researcher Leena Hilaviki-Clarke, PhD, professor of oncology at the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center at Georgetown.

Although there are various theories as to explain the relationship of soy to the prevention of cancer. "But there is currently no convincing explanation of why cancer risk reduction effects are stronger during childhood and early puberty," he added.

So far, there are only three research that examines the benefits of soy in puberty and its influence on the development of advanced stage breast cancer. Two of these studies focused on Asian women who eat soy in the daily menu.

This research indicates that soy offers a very strong protective effect - which is about 50 percent lower risk of breast cancer - when consumed during childhood and early adolescence.

According Hilakivi-Clarke, it was revealed the strongest evidence through various researches in mice. From this animal study, data on exposure to genistein in pre puberty is very consistent in showing a decline person is at risk of cancer. Exposure to genistein in fetal development or in adulthood did not show precisely the same impact protection.

Further testing in mice showed that the use of genistein in puberty can suppress levels of TEB (terminal end buds) or structures that cause the growth of mammary epithelial tissues, where the cells lining the milk ducts, and in the epithelial cells of breast cancer is growing.
