    GlossaryIsoflavones

    naturally occurring plant compounds that mimic estrogen

    Isoflavones are naturally occurring compounds found in plants, particularly in soybeans and other legumes. They are a type of phytoestrogen, which means they can mimic the hormone estrogen in the body. Isoflavones are studied for their potential health benefits, including reducing the risk of certain cancers, improving heart health, and alleviating menopausal symptoms.
