For you, if you are interested in a soy isoflavone anti-aging supplement

The formula of Ultra Soy Extract can:

  • Support healthy cell division and function
  • Imitate the benefits of a soy-based longevity diet
  • Promote cardiovascular health
  • Help maintain a healthy blood lipid profile 
  • Provide a soy extract standardized to both soy isoflavones genistein & daidzein

Soy is well known as a staple of plant-based diets. But soy advantages go far beyond that: soy can promote healthy cell division, support longevity and help maintain heart health. Soy’s health benefits come from hormone-modulating and antioxidant-rich isoflavone compounds found in soy extract.

Health benefits with a glance:

First of all, what is soy and its compound isoflavones? They are phytoestrogens (plant estrogens) that mimic estrogen-like activity in the body.

By binding to cellular estrogen receptors and blocking harmful compounds, soy isoflavones can provide a cellular protective effect in the body. They also offer strong antioxidant properties, which are key for supporting healthy aging.

Ultra Soy Extract delivers the two main types of isoflavones found in soybeans, genistein and daidzein.


Why it works:

Because of soy's health benefits, many people are adding it to their daily diet and supplement routine, but it's particularly beneficial for post-menopausal women. 

Soy's phytoestrogens can be found in plants and when metabolized in the digestive tract through bacterial fermentation, these isoflavones can have either estrogenic or anti-estrogenic effects, depending on the tissue and receptor type. (1,2) 

They also have non-hormonal effects, including signal transduction and antioxidant activity. (2,3) Several randomized controlled trials have also shown that soy isoflavones support bone health after menopause. (4)


The science behind the product:

The advantages of phytoestrogens

There has been an increase in the number of basic scientific, clinical, and nutritional studies investigating the health effects of phytoestrogens. 

Soybeans contain three major phytoestrogens: genistein, daidzein, and glycitein. Among these, genistein is the most abundant and has a range of biological activities that go beyond its interaction with hormone receptors. (5,6) 

Women in Japan, where life expectancy is among the highest in the world, consume 30-40 mg of isoflavones daily, whereas the average daily intake of genistein is only about 1 mg for postmenopausal women in the United States. (7)

Other components of soy may also contribute to the health and longevity observed in Asian populations, who include soy as a significant part of their diet. (8) 

Soy and its phytoestrogens are also demonstrated to support cardiovascular health. Clinical trials and animal studies have shown that consuming soy foods can help maintain healthy blood lipid levels, including triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, and HDL cholesterol, already within normal ranges. (9,10)

Soy products can benefit cardiovascular and overall health due to their low saturated fat content and high levels of protein, polyunsaturated fats, fiber, vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals. (1,3,11) 

Research also links soy consumption to improved neurological and metabolic health, as well as promoting healthy cell function and growth. (1,12-14)

A full spectrum soy formula

Ultra Soy Extract contains non-GMO Soynatto fermented soy food and has been reformulated with soybean extract standardized to isoflavones.

It's standardized to 40% total isoflavones, providing 15% genistein and 14% daidzein, ensuring that you receive the full spectrum of health benefits.
