But ultimately, soy milk contains very small amounts of isoflavones, which have a much weaker effect on our bodies than estrogen.

但归根结底，豆浆中含有极少量的异黄酮，与雌激素相比，异黄酮对我们身体的影响要弱得多。

High doses of plant estrogens in soy called isoflavones have been found to stimulate breast tumor cell growth in animal studies.

在动物研究中发现，大豆中的高剂量植物雌激素异黄酮可以刺激乳腺肿瘤细胞的生长。

The presence of isoflavones has also led to the worry that soy might negatively affect fertility or give men more feminine characteristics.

异黄酮的存在也引发了人们的担忧，即大豆可能会对生育能力产生负面影响或赋予男性更多女性特征。

And while it's true that the isoflavones in soy can weakly mimic estrogen, he added, they also seem to have anticancer, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

他补充说，虽然大豆中的异黄酮确实可以微弱地模仿雌激素，但它们似乎也具有抗癌、抗炎和抗氧化特性。

Ms. Bragagnini's clients, for instance, routinely ask if soy foods are linked with cancer, a concern stemming from their relatively high levels of isoflavones, plant-based compounds that are structurally similar to the hormone estrogen.

例如，布拉加尼尼女士的客户经常询问大豆食品是否与癌症有关，这种担忧源于大豆异黄酮含量相对较高，异黄酮是一种植物性化合物，其结构与雌激素相似。

He led a study published in 2020 that found that consuming more soy isoflavones, particularly from tofu, was associated with a moderately lower risk of coronary heart disease.

他领导的一项研究于 2020 年发表，发现摄入更多的大豆异黄酮，尤其是豆腐中的大豆异黄酮，与冠心病风险适度降低相关。
