Usage And Synthesis

Anti-cancer effect

It can prevent and treat breast cancer, prostate cancer and colon cancer. The effect of estrogen can increase the weight of the uterus of animals such as mice, but the effect is not as good as that of the similar isoflavone genistein (genistein) and daidzein. The estrogenic effect of this product is very weak. It is clinically used as a diuretic.
