Abstract in brief

The relationship between soy foods and breast cancer has been studied for over 25 years, with isoflavones in soy being considered potential agents to prevent breast cancer because they can influence estrogen-related pathways.
Observational studies suggest that women, especially in Asian populations, who consume more soy have about a 30% lower risk of developing breast cancer, particularly if they start consuming soy early in life.
Despite concerns that soy could worsen breast cancer prognosis, extensive clinical and epidemiologic research shows that soy is safe for breast cancer patients and may actually help reduce recurrence and improve survival rates.]

@tiras_corner @IanTrevelyan Phytoestrogens protect against breast cancer. https://t.co/1kGMTZogYq The real estrogen you consume in a hen's menstrual waste (eggs), a 1000lb pregnant mother's breast milk (dairy) & flesh from female murder victims is what you should be worried about.

@samuel_stepan @Sladislavovo @IgorTerleg Tady nejde o to, jestli je to potenciálně karcinogenní, ale o to, že je tam silná asociace. Třeba zmíněná sója se zdá, že není karcinogenní a naopak její konzumace snižuje riziko několika typů rakovin (https://t.co/VU0N08soBy ; https://t.co/dETMDgtln3)…
