Correlation between Soy Phytoestrogens and Thyroid Laboratory Parameters: Implications for Iodine Nutrition
Original language description
Iodine is the main component for thyroid hormone biosynthesis, hence, lack of its supplementation in diet may have severe consequences. Soy isoflavones are one of the nutritional factors that may affect thyroid hormone biosynthesis, transport, and actions in target tissues. Both isoflavones and isomeric flavones are widespread phytochemicals in the plant kingdom, whose individual varieties number in the thousands. The most important isoflavonoids, daidzein and genistein, are abundant in legumes, especially in soybeans and soy-based food and formulas. Soy foods carry a lot of significance in South- and East- Asian countries: a lower incidence of coronary heart diseases, certain forms of cancer, and osteoporosis in these countries has been ascribed to their purported beneficial effects on human health. Daidzein and genistein are weak estrogens due to their ability to interact with estrogen receptors (ER- type), and have been used for estrogen replacement therapy. In addition, their estr
