DETAILS

Description (English)
Research Area: Cardiovascular Disease
Biological Activity:
Daidzein belongs to the group of isoflavones. Daidzein and other isoflavone compounds, such as genistein, are present in a number of plants and herbs. Soy isoflavones are a group of compounds found in and isolated from the soybean. Besides functioning as antioxidants, many isoflavones have been shown to interact with animal and human estrogen receptors, and therefore are known as phytoestrogens. Soy isoflavones also produce non-hormonal effects. [1]
