Researchers from Georgetown acename> Medical Center in published research reports the British Journal of Cancer emphasizes that women should be diligent lady eat foods made from soy if you want to avoid the risk of breast cancer. In soybeans, according to researchers contained a kind of important chemical called genistein which claimed effective against cancer. Even so, major challenges still faced by the researchers in the use of substances in soy is genistein. They have to make sure how soy can be used appropriately to provide protection for young women from this vicious disease. The timing seems important in the use of this bioactive food, and if we can reveal why these substances can protect, then we can provide payudaa cancer prevention in a broader scope, "said researcher Leena Hilaviki-Clarke, PhD, professor of oncology from the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center in Georgetown. Although there are various theories as to explain the relationship of soy to the prevention kenker. ¨ However, there is currently no convincing explanation about why the cancer risk reduction effects are stronger during childhood and early puberty, ¨ he added. So far, there are three new research that examined the benefits of soy in puberty and its influence on the development of advanced stage breast cancer. Two of these studies focused on Asian women who eat soy in the daily menu. This research indicates that soy offers a protective effect that is very strong - that is, approximately 50 percent reduced risk of breast cancer - when consumed during childhood and early adolescence.

According Hilakivi-Clarke, it was revealed the strongest evidence through various researches in mice. From this animal study, data on exposure to genistein in pre puberty very consistent in showing a decrease cancer risks. Exposure to genistein in fetal development or in adult life it does not show the same protective effect. Further testing in rats showed that the use of genistein in puberty may suppress levels of TEB (terminal end buds) or structures that cause the growth of epithelial tissue mamari, where the cells lining milk ducts, and in the epithelial cells of breast cancer is growing.
