Soy Ingredient Increases Male Fertility
"Compounds with estrogenic activity can affect reproductive function in mammals 'including humans.]"

Medical scientists at the Centre for Reproduction at Kings College, London,* (quoted above,) then tested animals to see the results of both estrogen and genistein, a soy isoflavenoid.

Their conclusion--"This study provides the first evidence that 'estrogen] and ... 'food-based] estrogens can significantly stimulate mammalian sperm 'capacity] ...and fertilizing ability, with the ...'food-based] estrogens 'in soy]being more potent than 'synthetic estrogens.]" Emphasis added.

By Adeoya-Osiguwa, Markoulaki, Pocock, Milligan & Fraser, in the journal Human Reproduction, 2003.
