Postmenopausal Women Benefit From High Dietary Phytoestrogen Intake.(Brief Article)
2001 DEC 13 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Osteoporosis continues to top the list of potential health problems that could affect postmenopausal women. However, a recently published study found that eating foods with high levels of phytoestrogens, such as tofu or soy, may help postmenopausal women prevent osteoporosis.
Researchers at the University of Hong Kong studied the phytoestrogen intake of 650 southern Chinese women - 293 premenopausal and 357 postmenopausal. The average phytoestrogen intake was 29 mg/day for postmenopausal women and 21 mg/day for premenopausal women. Dr. Annie W.C. Kung and the other researchers discovered a correlation between high dietary phytoestrogen intake and an increased bone mass in the women.
"These figures show that Chinese women take in more than seven times more phytoestrogens than the average Western woman," commented Kung.
The article was published in the November 2001 issue of the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism.
