Soy Improving Your Skin, Hair,
& Nails?

Soy consumption not only helps hot flashes and night sweats it can even support healthier-looking skin, hair, and nails by supplying high-quality protein and antioxidants needed for building and maintaining the appearance of such tissues. ^(1-4) Multiple studies demonstrate a "diversity" of soy antioxidant properties. ⁽⁵⁾

Numerous studies show that topically applied soy antioxidants and soy peptides (little pieces of soy protein) in creams can produce startling reductions in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and skin discolorations, while at the same time brightening skin complexion, so it isn't surprising that soy can also work from the "inside out."

"Beauty From Within" Study Shows "Beautiful Results"

A new study shows you can fight the visible signs of aging with regular daily soy supplementation. The results are beautiful:

SKIN: 93% of women showed significant improvements in skin appearance. Skin flaking and discoloration were reduced after 3 months, while reductions in skin wrinkling were seen after 6 months.
HAIR: Improvement in hair appearance was seen at both 3 and 6-month evaluation time points. Improvements were evident for hair roughness, manageability, and overall appearance after consuming soy supplementation for 3 months. Additional improvements were observed after 6 months of use, in terms of hair roughness, dullness, and overall appearance.
NAILS: Significant improvements were seen in nail roughness, ridging, flaking, splitting, and overall appearance after 6 months of consumption.

The results of this study demonstrate that daily soy consumption may improve dermatologic health. Improvements in appearance of skin, hair, and nails were evident after 6 months of soy consumption, with some benefits being noted as early as 3 months.

Revival Soy...

2009 Study results showed on average the women consuming the Revival Soy shake daily for 12 weeks saw an improvement (approximately 40 percent on average) in all four postmenopausal quality of life areas, including a reduction in hot flashes and night sweats. The study investigators concluded that consuming Revival Soy was associated with an improved quality of life in early postmenopausal women. ⁽⁶⁾
