Abstract

Objective: Many different plants produce compounds that may mimic or interact with estrogen hormones in animals which are referred to as PHYTOESTROGENS. Materials and Methods: The two groups of PHYTOESTROGENS are the lignans and the isoflavones. PHYTOESTROGENS differ remarkably from synthetic estrogens in that they are easily broken down, are not stored in tissue, and spend very little time in the body. All in all, there are differing opinions about PHYTOESTROGENS role in health. When consumed as part of an ordinary DIET, PHYTOESTROGENS are probably safe and beneficial. PHYTOESTROGENS through their effects on endocrine system could be a theraputic option for MENOPAUSE and osteoporosis. Studies on CANCER incidences in different countries suggest that PHYTOESTROGENS have antioxidant activity and can influence intracellular enzymes, protein synthesis, growth factor action, and cell proliferation which help protect against certain CANCERs (breast, uterus and prostate) in humans, in a way that makes them strong candidates for a role as natural CANCER-protective compounds. More extensive studies are needed to confirm the PHYTOESTROGENS safety in different fields and determinig the kind and dose of related phytoestrogenic substance in each case. Besides the type and dose of phytoestrogen used, other factors such as duration of use, age, gender, genetic difference and general medical condition of the individual are determinants of positive effect of PHYTOESTROGENS.
