  • Women who are struggling to conceive are inundated with information on what

    foods to avoid and what foods to eat, and it can often be tough to keep up to

    date on the latest research. Unfortunately, this can often lead to new

    discoveries not receiving the attention they deserve.

    One such discovery is

    that of soy foods.

    Soy foods are generally healthy for both men and women to

    eat. In fact, women have been encouraged in the past to increase their soy food

    intake since they contain phytoestrogens, a plant form of estrogen that affects

    the body similarly to the estrogen that is produced naturally in the body.



    Increasing soy foods intake, and therefore increasing phytoestrogen intake,

    can be very beneficial in combating the symptoms of menopause. For women who are

    trying to conceive, however, soy foods are not such a good idea.
