New study: Soy may benefit breast cancer survivors

Just in time for Breast Cancer Awareness month: Eating whole soy products may reduce breast cancer survivors’ risks of developing new tumors, finds a new study from the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).
Most breast tumors are produced by the hormone estrogen, which is typically found in some types of dairy and soy products, making soy a controversial food for breast cancer survivors. However, new research shows that breast cancer patients and survivors who consume soy foods can actually reap major health benefits.
The report also concluded that women who consumed soy products, such as, soymilk, tofu, or edamame reduced their risk of relapse by 32 percent. The same study found that postmenopausal women who consumed soy, along with fruits and vegetables, also had a 30 percent lower risk of developing breast cancer. While the results are certainly exciting, more research is needed, and experts say that currently, soy products should continue to be eaten in moderation (2 to 4 servings a week).
