IsoflavoneThe Promensil brand is recognised as a quality women's health product. The plan is to `migrate' consumers from Promensil Menopause to Promensil Post Menopause as their physical symptoms subside and the more serious health implication of bone weakening and increasing cholesterol become a reality for women over 55 years. The product formulation contains Isoflavones, Vitamin D and Calcium. The claims of improved bone and cholesterol health are based on published studies supporting the role of isoflavones in the reduction of bone loss and the many studies supporting the role of Calcium and Vitamin D. Additionally there are two published studies and an international presentation supporting the role of isoflavones in cholesterol health and reduction in arterial stiffness. Promensil After Menopause was introduced into USA in late 005 and into Canada in early 006. The global rollout will take place throughout the rest of 006. More ratios of the key isoflavones genistein, daidzin and glycitein. Lutein, a carotenoid recommended for eye health, is a small but rapidly growing supplement for the US market. US sales reached $65 million in 2002, and growth through 2005 is projected at 10 to percent, according to Health Strategy Consulting. Roche, BASF, Cognis and Kemin Foods are major producers of lutein. In April, Roche introduced lutein 5 percent CWS, a cold-water-dispersible form specifically developed for the fortification of foods and beverages and for effervescent tablets, and lutein 5 percent TG P, a new tablet-grade form for a range of tableting applications. Kemin Foods provides Roche exclusively with FloraGLO Lutein, its patented, purified, crystalline lutein from which Roche manufactures various lutein product forms at its Sisseln and Village-Neuf, Switzerland, plants. In 2000 Kemin Foods brought on stream two new production lines at its Des Moines, Iowa, plant; doubling nameplate capacity for lutein. FloraGlo has attained GRAS generally regarded as safe ; status for a variety of food categories, and recently helped Ham Pure Foods launch two new vegetable and carrot juice products containing 1 mg of FloraGLO per eight ounce serving. Cognis's nutrition and health business unit offers Xangold natural lutein esters for use in functional foods and dietary supplements, says Paul Allen, group vice president; Cognis Nutrition & Health. Lutein esters are one specialty supplement product offered by Cognis, which also offers conjugated linoleic acid CLA ; , natural mixed carotenoids and phytosterols. Cognis gained its CLAproduct line from Sandvika, Norway-based Natural ASA, a company specializing in naturally-sourced nutritional substances, in addition to the exclusive license to Natural ASA's CLA intellectual property, technology, marketing and use of the capacity at its facilities in Illertissen, Germany, where Tonalin CLA is produced. The company also started up a phytosterol manufacturing plant in January 2002 in Boussens, France, with a capacity of 1, 600 metric tons per year. In addition to its lutein and lycopene products, Roche introduced new forms of the carotenoid zeaxanthin in 2001 and zeaxanthin 20 percent FS earlier this year. The company also opened a Teavigo epigallocatechin gallate EGCG ; manufacturing plant in March in Shanghai, China, with annual capacity of 40 metric tons. EGCG is the active ingredient in green tea, and Roche plans to market the product for use in dietary supplements, beverages, solid foods and pharmaceutical products. In addition to EGCG, another new Source: Health Strategy Consulting LLC entry for Roche is genistein, an isoflavone found in soy products. Roche recently developed a new process for making genistein, which is now under patent review, and which will be implemented at the company's Sisseln, Switzerland, facility. Roche plans to have genistein in pure form available in 2004 for the dietary supplement and food industries. Isoflavones and soy-based products are an important part of the product portfolio of the large agribusiness concems Archer Daniels Midland Company ADM ; and Cargill Inc. As part of its Novasoy range of isoflavones, ADM recently introduced Novasoy Daily, a sustained-release formula of isoflavones. ADM also offers soy proteins, including its. 1.

This study has found that, in postmenopausal women the habitual soy intake has a beneficial effect on bone mass, particularly after the initial years of dramatic hormonal change. At least 40 mg of soy isoflavones per day seem to be necessary to exert the effect but it is probable that a higher intake is required to achieve optimal effects on bone health. At least one glass of soy milk daily and a small bowl of tofu or their equivalent would be beneficial. As osteoporosis is a major public health problem in Hong Kong and Asia, lifestyle advice should include recommendation of a higher consumption of soy. Modest increase in trabecular vertebral ; bone with soy protein diet with high isoflavone no evidence that topical natural progesterone derived from diosgenin in either soybeans or mexican wild yam is beneficial in treating osteoporosis, hot flashes, premenstrual syndrome, or breast cancer and isoniazid. This, with evidence from other studies, leads patisaul to believe that the soy isoflavone is also acting as an estrogen opposer. Isoflavone resveratrolRow percentage. Percentage of total.

Dr. Susan Potter19 and her colleagues have performed many studies on the effects of soy protein and the mechanism of such effects in lowering blood cholesterol. In a recent study of 66 hypercholesterolemic postmenopausal females who received soy protein containing variable amounts of isoflavones, it was noted that soy protein with isoflavone exerted positive influences on blood lipids, thereby decreasing the risk of cardiovascular disease in the postmenopausal state. This conclusion is supported by the finding of several antiatherogenic factors in soybeans, 20 including antioxidant properties to protect against low density lipoprotein oxidation21 and the inhibition of platelet aggregation with an antithrombotic effect. 22 The antithrombotic effects of isoflavones contrast with the thrombotic potential of conventional HRT. Other Benefits of Soy in the Postmenopausal State Soy protein containing isoflavones has chemoprotective effects against breast and colon cancer and its amino acid content promotes renal health and calcium retention. The prevention and potential treatment of prostatic cancer by soy isoflavones should catch the eye and ketorolac. 1996 ; said that extension service efforts are necessary in Nigeria and other African countries to increase soyabean production and consumption. There are several institutions responsible for creating awareness about soyabean processing and utilization technologies, these include Agricultural Development Project ADP ; , IITA, National Agricultural Extension Research and Liaison Services NAERLS ; and others. In Nigeria, Women in Agriculture the arm of ADP teach farm families soyabean processing and utilization. Health Benefits from Soyabean Consumption: Consumption of foods containing soyabean and soyabean constituents has been associated with reduced heart disease risk factors, reduced osteoporosis, alleviation of menopausal symptoms, reduced cancer risk and in a limited number of studies reduced diabetes. It also helps people to stay lean reduced obesity ; . Idoflavone compounds found in soyabean, especially genistein may help to stay lean by causing us to produce fewer and smaller fat cells Naaz et al., 2003 ; . About 6 million men and 6.3 million women that are living today have a history of coronary heart disease. Soyabean works in the prevention or minimizing the conditions through controlling cholesterol, blood pressure, vascular function and direct. As we already demonstrated, using flow injection analysis coupled to various detectors we can investigate the behaviour of compounds of interest in order to optimise detection.3033 Here, we focused on the optimisation of detection of isoflavones in the range of applied potential 300 to 1000 mV. The experiments were carried using acetate buffer pH 5.0 as a mobile phase with flow rate of 0.5 mL min1; temperature 20 C. The hydrodynamic voltammograms are shown in Figure 2. The isoflavones of interest gave the highest responses at potentials within the and ketotifen.

Immediately after collection, the urine samples were stored in the participant's home freezer. If the participant forgot to collect urine one day or if spot bleeding occurred, she discarded the unused vial and resumed urine collection the next day. All urine samples were analyzed for total and individual isoflavonoid levels daidzein, genistein, glycitein, equol, and O-desmethylangolensin ; using high-pressure liquid chromatography with photo diode-array detection.13 Inter-assay variability for daidzein mean 13.0 M ; , glycitein mean 1.6M ; , genistein mean 3.4 M ; , and O-desmethylangolensin ODMA ; mean 1.1M ; were 12%, 6%, 9%, and 22%, respectively. Absorbance readings were obtained with a spectrophotometer Bio Spec 1601, Shimadzu; Columbia, MD ; . To standardize for urinary volume, creatinine concentration for each urine sample was determined using the Jaffe reaction based Quantitative Colorimetric Determination Creatinine Kit, Procedure No. 555 from Sigma Diagnostics St. Louis, MO ; with an interassay variability of 4.2% and UIERs were calculated as nmol mg creatinine. The first-morning urine samples from each subject were prepared to yield one monthly pool monthly ; , one single day pool daily ; , and two to four weekly pools weekly ; . The monthly pool consisted of a combination of all first-urine samples from each participant, whereby a volume equivalent to 100g creatinine from each sample was used. The weekly pools consisted of a combination of three first-morning samples for each week using a volume equivalent to 100g creatinine from each day. This included one weekend and two weekday-urine samples at least one day apart from each other. Each woman had between one to four weekly pools. Single day samples were taken from the same day, in midweek, as one of the three samples used in one of the weekly pools. Statistical analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel 2000 XLSTAT-Pro Version 7.0, 2003, Addinsoft, Inc., Brooklyn, NY the significance level was set at P 0.05. Spearman rank order correlation coefficients r ; were calculated for total isoflavonoids and for individual isoflavonoids to assess the degree of correlation between the gold standard, the monthly UIER, and the UIER for a single day, each week, and all weeks combined. In addition, we stratified the women into subgroups by ethnicity Asian vs. non-Asian ; , body mass index BMI, 25 kg m2 vs. 25 kg m2 ; , and equol-exretor status excretors vs. non-excretors ; . Individuals who convert the ixoflavone daidzein to the metabolite equol are hypothesized to derive greater benefits from soy consumption.14 Results Nineteen of 20 women, aged 44.4 2.7 years, completed the study and collected between 17 and 25 urine samples. Seven women were Caucasian, one was Filipino, three were Japanese, six were of mixed ethnicity, and two women did not specify. Their body mass index BMI ; was 25.3 6.0 kg m2.

Phytoestrogens are classically considered as cancer inhibitors in humans [149, 150] and in animals [151, 152]. First this opinion proceed from epidemiological observations correlating high soy and isoflavone intakes in Asian countries and low incidence of uterus and breast cancer. A case study reported by Ingram et al. [153] also associated the appearance of breast cancer to low urinary levels of equol, daidzein, enterodiol, enterolactone and mataresinol. If this study is interesting it cannot be taken as a proof since phytoestrogens may be only a characteristic of a diet habit richer in fruits and legumes. It could then be either the higher fibre intake associated to a lower fat or meat intake which could be really responsible for the lowering of cancer incidence. Nowadays, cautious are taken since it appears that if the low cancer incidence associated to Asian diets disappear with change for Western diet, phytoestrogens are not the only difference between Western and Eastern cookeries. Hawrylewicz et al. [151] suggested that at least in soy "several component in soybean namely protease inhibitors, isoflavones, inositol hexaphosphate, phytosterols and saponins inhibit a variety of tumors in various tissues". They added that "the lower amount of methionin in soy protein compared with casein may be important in selectively retarding the growth of tumors". Beside these considerations it must be reminded that cooking habits are different between Asia and Western countries. Grilled meats are largely consumed in Western countries and they potentially contain carcinogenic compounds such as those obtained from the Maillard's reaction. On the opposite Japanese people are. Ms Maiano made a presentation on the mission, role and function of the World Customs Organization and particularly on combating counterfeit drugs. She said the WCO has 162 Members and its mission is to enhance the effectiveness of customs administration in matters concerning the application of commercial legislation, protection of society and recovering of tax revenues. It assists Members to respond to new challenges and encourages communication and cooperation which favours customs ethics, improvement of working methods and promotes best practices. WCO's work is based on a strategic plan that aims at combating fraud or any other form of transnational criminal activity, in particular counterfeiting and piracy. It has a partnership with international and regional organizations as well as with the private sector in order to provide an effective response to the problems encountered. Akiyama et al. 1987 ; reported that genistein could specifically inhibit the enzyme tyrosine protein kinase TPK ; , most likely at the level of ATP- binding sites. TPKs are associated with receptors of substances reg ulating growth such as epidermal growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, insulin and the insulinlike growth factor. They also show chemical structure similarity with estrogen and progesterone receptors. Takano et al. 1993 ; have found that genistein blocks the rat thyroid cell line FRTL-5 in vitro by acting as a specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Cytostatic concen tration of genistein 1-20 ng ml] had the effect of ar resting human promyelocytic leukemic HL-60 cells in G2 phase Trganoset al. 1992 ; . Growth arrest was also shown by the same investigators for the MOLT4 line of human lymphocytic leukemic cells. Growth of HGC-27 cells in culture, a line of neoplastic cells derived from human gastric cancer, was also arrested by genistein when the cells were in the G-2 M phase. This effect was reversible Matsukawa et al. 1993 ; . In contrast to genistein, other phytoestrogens flavone, luteolin and daidzein ; arrested the same H-GC-27 cells in phase GOE Matsukawa et al. 1993 ; . An alternative and additional modulatory mecha nism of tumor growth by genistein is through angiogenesis inhibition. Fotsis et al. 1993 ; demonstrated that genistein, when added to basic fibroblast growth factor delayed the proliferation of endothelial cells derived from bovine brain capillaries. Retardation of endothelial cell growth by genistein may occur 1 ; as consequence of the competitive inhibition of ATP binding to the catalytic domain of tyrosine kinase; 2 ; as a consequence of the attenuation of activity of S6 kinase, an enzyme that is also activated by basic fibro blast growth factor and 3 ; through the modulation of the topoisomerases I and II, two enzymes involved in nuclear events such as transcription, replication, re combination and mitotic chromosome segregation Fotsis et al. 1993 ; . Isoflavones may also inhibit cell growth by inhibition of the mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase ALDH-1 ; as shown by Keung and Val lee 1993 ; using daidzin the glucoside of daidzein ; . Prunetin and genistein possess a similar effect but at a concentration, respectively, 7- and 15-fold less. Fi nally, genistein was shown to inhibit the growth of human breast carcinoma cells. Peterson and Barney 1991 ; studied the inhibitory activity of genistein, biochanin A and daidzein on three human breast car cinoma cell lines: MDA-468, which is estrogen recep tor negative, and MCF-7 and MCF-7D-40, which are estrogen receptor positive. Genistein had a strong in hibitory effect on the growth of all three cell lines, independently of their content in estrogen receptors. Biochanin A and daidzein had a much weaker inhib itory effect while practically no effect was observed when the beta glucoside, genistin or daidzin were added to the cultures.
