Soy Guard Soy is a nutritional powerhouse and a medicinal wonder. It offers such a synergy of health benefits that it is now classified as one of the world's great 'Super foods'. Soy Guard� is a superior food supplement with noticeable health benefits. The soy sprouts are dehydrated at a low temperature, ground into powder and encapsulated. The result is a concentrated live Soy supplement that retains the sprouts precious phyto-chemicals, enzymes, vitamins and minerals. Soy Guard� effectively lowers your risks of disease and chronic degenerative conditions, while enhancing personal health and increasing vitality and longevity. "The most notable property of Isoflavones is their reported ability to reduce the risk of breast cancer. Because of this, soy, which is rich in the Isoflavones, Genistein and Daidzein, has become more popular than ever". The Super Isoflavones . Energy Times Magazine February 1997 Unique Phyto-Nutrients | Soy Guard vs. Processed Soy Foods Directions for Taking Soy Guard Product Size: 80 Tablets, 170 Tablets UNIQUE PHYTO-NUTRIENTS Research on the unique phytonutrients found in the soybean place it high on the list of the world's greatest natural nutritional super foods. Unlike most other sources of beneficial phytonutrients, soy contains a wide range of different types of phytonutrients - including Isoflavones, 'SOD-like' proteins, phytates, protease inhibitors, essential fatty acids, phyto-sterols, saponins, lecithin and fiber. All work together to create a powerful synergy of overall health benefits. It is commonly recognized that the powerful and proven benefits of soy phytonutrients are best realized from whole soy foods, it is also important to clarify exactly what type of soy food will be most effective. While most soy foods are heat processed to remove potentially harmful digestive enzyme inhibitors, Soy Guard� sprouted soy complex utilizes break-through Hydro-Vac� sprouting technology to naturally remove these digestive inhibitors and transform soy into a fully enzyme 'live' food. Combined with an exclusive low-temperature drying process (<80� F), the enzyme activity and electromagnetic integrity of Soy Guard� is preserved, greatly enhancing the digestibility and overall utilization of nutrients naturally found within the soybean. ISOFLAVONES Isoflavones are also known as phyto-estrogens because they are similar in structure to natural estrogen. However, they are only 1/1000th the strength. These weak estrogens have the ability to interfere with the body's stronger natural estrogen in a positive way and exhibit powerful anti-cancer effects in hormone-related malignancies. Excessive estrogen levels are reported to be a major factor in the cause of uterine, cervical, ovarian and breast cancer in women. Additionally, there is strong evidence Isoflavones in soy can block the negative effects of androgens on the prostate in men, thereby preventing enlarged prostate and prostate cancer. Genistein is an Isoflavones found in soy which has a wide range of benefits. Research shows that Genistein inhibits the growth of cancer cells, but not normal cells. Genistein inhibits the activity of tyrosine protein kinase, and enzyme that is involved in the transformation or normal cells into cancer cells. Genistein also appears to protect against heart disease by stopping the growth of cells that form plaque deposits on arteries. PROTEIN Protein literally performs hundreds of functions in the body; we cannot live without it. It is widely know that soy food is an excellent source of protein and contains all 8 amino acids which the body cannot produce itself. The U.S. government recognizes soy as a source or protein equivalent to meat. Scientists are saying that soy is a superior form of protein. Every metabolic function of the body, including the digestion and absorption of the food we eat, depends on enzymes. The life energy of enzymes is carried by protein molecules. Amino acids are the building blocks of p
