However, problems usually arise when women began entering the period of menopause or cessation of menstrual periods.

A study done by researchers recently showed that consumption of soy beverages can improve the appearance of women. In the study, postmenopausal women who regularly consume soy beverage every day for three months, tend to have more slender abdomen than their counterparts who drank milk.

Soy contains isoflavones, which is structurally similar to estrogen and attach to estrogen receptors in the layer of fat. So, in theory isoflavones in soy may help regulate body fat metabolism.

After three months, the researchers found that women who drank soy has a circumference of abdominal fat is more slender than that drinking milk, even though both groups showed similar changes in weight and fat throughout the body.

"It's not clear why the protein in soy may affect fat especially in the abdominal circumference. Whatever the mechanism, our data suggest that soy protein containing isoflavones may prevent the accumulation of fat in the abdomen," said Sites.
