Soy Cuts Stroke Risk

Whoever out there is still weary of soy better take a good look at a new study published in Neuroepidemiology. New research confirms that the more soy you consume, the greater your chance is for reducing stroke risk. Research found that consuming 50 grams of soy products a week reduces stroke risk, while consuming 50 to 300 grams results in an even greater drop. The greatest health benefits come with consuming 300 grams or more per week. The study was conducted in Southern China but the effects should be the same with Western diets, says Colin Binns, a professor at Curtin University of Technology who led the research. So, spread the good word about the bean curd!
