Phyto-Soy™
The Drink of the Future
Phyto-Soy™ supplies the highest potency of Soy-isoflavone and contributes
cooling energy to balance your entire body. This great tasting soy-isoflavone
concentrate is rich in phytoestrogens, key phytonutrients in preventing
many conditions associated with aging. Menopausal women are particularly
concerned with stopping bone loss and preserving hormonal balance. This
refreshing tea goes another step, cleansing and detoxifying your entire
body as it slows the aging process. Auto-immunity, prostates and kidney
problems as well as rapid free radical formations, inflammation and repeated
mild infections are all associated with aging. Soy-isoflavones (100 mg./ml,
10% Soy-isoflavone, 5% Genistein), are believed to be beneficial for fighting
oxidants, prostates, cancer, osteoporosis, atherosclerosis and kidney disease.
Studies in Japan have shown that the extract of Chinese blackberry contains
anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation properties. Phyto Soy™ is
your perfect choice for daily body cleansing, anti-aging and body balance.
DOCUMENTATION OF INDIVIDUAL HERBS
Soy (Glycine max)
Organ Affinity: Cools: Spleen, Heart and Large Intestines.
Soybeans have played an integral part in Chinese culture, both as a food
and as a medicine. It has been suggested by scientific findings that soy
is beneficial for healing chronic diseases including: osteoporosis, kidney
disease, atherosclerosis, and that it has anti-carcinogens and anticancer
properties for breast, colon, and prostate cancers. Genistein in soybean
plays a major role as a weak estrogen compound which has been shown to be
an estrogen balancer in animal models.

Effects: Kidney tonic, astringent
Indications: Kidney deficiency: impotence, spermatorrhoea, premature
