Read the detailed description

In a double blind clinical randomised clinical trial with parallel design this study was done.52 postmenopausal women were randomly assigned to 50 g/d soy protein or placebo for 10 weeks.serum lipoproteins and pon1 activity were measured at baseline and 10th week.There were significant increase in PON! activity and significant decrease in LDL-C,LDL-C/HDL-C,TC/HDL-C and TG/HDL-C in soy group compare to placebo group.
