Products made from soy isolates or concentrates, meanwhile, contain significantly fewer isoflavonoids. Phytochemicals can indicate how much the original composition of the ingredients has been ...

Processing methods used to make plant-based foods and beverages can enhance nutrients or destroy them. We discover which foods pass the nutrient-enhancing test.

Plant-based meat has been criticised for being ultra-processed, but classification systems like Nova don't fully reflect a food's healthfulness, shows a new study.

We found that in tempeh, for example, these isoflavonoids were in a form that is more readily absorbed due to the activity of the microbes used in fermentation,” says Doctoral Researcher Jasmin Raita.

A study conducted at the Food Sciences unit of the University of Turku in Finland showed that different processing methods significantly affect the biochemical composition of plant-based foods ...

Isoflavonoids are synthesized from phenylalanine via the phenylpropanoid and downstream pathways. Clayton et al. built on earlier research on soybean AROGENATE DEHYDRATASE (Gm ADT) isozymes—which ...

You can also consume polyphenols in beverages like coffee and tea. Plant-based foods rich in polyphenols can help reduce inflammation and prevent chronic health conditions like diabetes, ...

Background: Postmenopausal hormone therapy has been shown to increase stroke risk. It is unclear whether high exposure to pytoestrogens, such as soy isoflavones, may confer the same risk of stroke.

The team identified a total of 627 featured metabolites in infected soybean samples, which were clustered into four modules covering flavonoids, isoflavonoids, triterpenes, amino acids and ...
