Reveal Radiant Skin: How Soy Protein Can Reverse the Signs of Aging Skin in Postmenopausal Women.

A recent study found that eating eating soy protein with added isoflavones (SPII) for six months can make your skin look better.

Researchers studied postmenopausal women with different skin types. After 16 and 24 weeks, they saw that the SPII group had fewer wrinkles (about 6-7% less) compared to when they started.

Their skin also had fewer dark spots (pigmentation) after 24 weeks. Plus, their skin was more hydrated, but it didn't change how much oil the skin produced.

So, taking soy protein with isoflavones might help improve the skin of postmenopausal women.

What are some food sources of soy protein with isoflavone?

Soybeans: Whole soybeans, also known as edamame. These are great steamed or stir-fried.

Tofu: Tofu, or bean curd, is made from soybean milk and is rich in both soy protein and isoflavones. This can be added to soups, smoothies, and stir-fried dishes.

Soy Protein Powder: Soy protein powder can be added to smoothies and other recipes, making it easy to increase your soy protein and isoflavone intake.

Tempeh: Tempeh is a fermented soybean product that contains a good amount of soy protein and isoflavones.

Soy Milk: Many varieties of soy milk are available in stores, and they are often fortified with isoflavones and can be a good source of soy protein.

Soy-Based Meat Substitutes: Some meat substitutes, like veggie burgers and soy-based hot dogs, contain soy protein and isoflavones.

Soy Nuts: Roasted soy nuts are a snack that provides both soy protein and isoflavones.
