Soy Food & Myths
Rata-rata ada para ibu yang confuse atau curious betul atau tidak soy foods ni bole effect pada anak / bayi mereka. Ada juga yang kata soy protein (or any soy food) ni boleh ubah hormone anak especially anak lelaki..takut jadi lembut pulak..so yang ni saya extract dari website Shaklee yang proven with CLINICAL STUDIES.
Childhood Development
Asian women have been consuming soy foods for centuries without any apparent adverse effects in the offspring. In pregnant women who consume soy, isoflavones are transferred to the fetus.
However, levels of the hormone estrogen are incredibly high compared to the small amounts of isoflavones in the womb or amniotic fluid. As a result, IT'S NOT LIKELY THAT ISOFLAVONES WOULD HAVE ANY TYPE OF ESTROGENICE EFFECT ON THE GROWING FETUS. Very little soy research has involved children or young people although several studies have found that adding soy foods to the diet allows for normal growth and development. Two studies, one in teenage boys and another in children 5 to 12 years of age, found that isoflavones DID NOT EXERT ESTROGEN-LIKE EFFECTS OR PRODUCE ANY ABNORMALITIES. Also, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, soy infant formula leads to normal growth and development; furthermore, their position is that there is negligible (the safest possible rating) concern about the safety of soy infant formula. Finally, one advantage of consuming soy early in life may be protection against breast cancer. Epidemiologic studies show that consuming approximately one serving of soy per day during childhood and / or adolescence REDUCES BREAST RISK CANCER later in life by as much as 50 PERCENT.
