Many patients, after learning that they have uterine fibroids, will pay close attention to their uterine fibroids diet, even to the point of not daring to eat anything. Take soy milk, can fibroids drink soy milk? Some say they can, and there are many benefits; some say they can’t, and the evidence is overwhelming. What are the facts? Together: As a daily drink, soy milk contains soy saponins, isoflavones, soy oligosaccharides and other special health factors with significant health functions. Regular consumption of soy milk can maintain normal nutritional balance, comprehensive regulation of the endocrine system, reduce blood pressure, blood lipids, reduce cardiovascular burden, increase heart vitality, optimize blood circulation, cardiovascular protection, and have a flat liver and kidney, anti-cancer, immune enhancement and other effects. The reason why you can’t drink soya milk for uterine fibroids is because there is phytoestrogen soy isoflavones in soya milk, and uterine fibroids are hormone-dependent diseases, drinking soya milk is not good for the condition. If the body has a lot of estrogen, the fibroids will increase rapidly, and if there is no estrogen they will shrink. This is the reason women’s uterine fibroids gradually shrink and disappear after menopause. Experts point out that soybeans are indeed rich in phytoestrogens, but the phytoestrogens it contains have a two-way regulatory effect after entering the body, that is, when the body lacks estrogen, phytoestrogens can be directly used by the body as estrogen, and when the body does not need it, phytoestrogens can be transformed into other nutrients that the body needs, thus avoiding the risk of drug supplementation of estrogen. Therefore, for foods that contain a small amount of natural hormones in daily life, such as beans and soy products, there is generally no problem with moderate consumption, but for maintenance products containing hormones, it is recommended not to take them to avoid aggravating the condition.
