WHAT DOES ISOFLAVONE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Isoflavones

Isoflavones comprise a class of organic compounds, often naturally occurring, related to the isoflavonoids. Many act as phytoestrogens in mammals. Some are termed antioxidants because of their ability to trap singlet oxygen. Some isoflavones, in particular soy isoflavones, when studied in populations eating soy protein, have indicated that there is a lower incidence of breast cancer and other common cancers because of its role in influencing sex hormone metabolism and biological activity through intracellular enzymes, protein synthesis, growth factor actions, malignant cell proliferations, differentation and angiogenesis. However, the risk reduction in breast cancer from soy isoflavones was only shown in Asian populations. Isoflavones are produced almost exclusively by the members of the Fabaceae family.
