Up to 30 mg of soy isoflavone supplement is safe
From Crisscross News
"TOKYO — A government food safety panel investigating the safety standard for soy isoflavone, a plant chemical widely believed to prevent osteoporosis and cancer, broadly agreed Monday that a daily intake of around 30 milligrams of isoflavone through supplement is safe, in addition to intake through regular diet.
The Cabinet Office's Food Safety Commission said 30 mg of isoflavone equals the amount contained in about 150 grams or a half block of tofu. Isoflavone is widely believed to prevent osteoporosis caused by declining estrogen in older women."
