Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a disorder where the bones become weakened by loss of substance (osteopenia), leading to an increased risk of broken bones (fractures) with minimal trauma.
Symptoms
The thinning of the bones does not, in itself, cause much in the way of symptoms. It does, however, lead to a risk of broken bones without much of an injury. In fact the bones of the spine can sometimes collapse without any obvious cause. When the bones are significantly thinned (low in bone mass) people who fall are more likely to break their wrist, hip, or other bones. A cough or a sneeze is more likely to cause a fracture of a rib or the partial collapse of one of the bones of the spine (vertebra). Any bone is more at risk with osteoporosis. Osteoporosis affects people in a number of ways:
  • Pain . The broken bones (fractures), which can happen without any obvious cause, can lead to severe pain, which lasts for quite a number of weeks.
  • Financial . People (especially the elderly) who develop a fracture become more dependent on others to look after them. It may result in an independent person needing long term support at home, or even having to go into a nursing home.
  • Mortality . With a 20% increase in mortality in the first year after a broken hip, the mortality is greater than that of cancer of the neck of the womb (cervix).

Conditions Men Get, Too
Seymour Kramer noticed a patch of what looked like blood on his pajama top three years ago and thought he had cut himself. But he wasn't scratched. His doctor tested the discharge and told the New Jersey man he had breast cancer. Dan, 70, a retired Michigan engineer who asked that his last name not be used, was pulling weeds three years ago. For no apparent reason, he fractured two vertebrae. Doctors told him his bones were wasting away. He has osteoporosis. As a teenager, Gary Grahl was obsessed with having a trim, "athletic" body. The Wisconsin resident shunned food and exercised excessively. Sometimes he'd do sit-ups and pushups for three hours before school. He ate little and shrank from 160 to an unhealthy 104 pounds. Over a six-year period, he was hospitalized four times. Grahl says he is now "completely recovered" from his eating disorder. They Aren't Just 'Women's Diseases' What do these men have in common? They all suffer from illnesses typically thought of as "women's diseases." Breast cancer, osteoporosis and eating disorders all occur in men, too, though their prevalence is much greater in the female population. As a result, many men, unaware that the diseases affect both sexes, may fail to recognize symptoms. Likewise, doctors and families often don't suspect these illnesses. This can delay therapy and make disorders difficult to treat.

Isoflavones
The role of isoflavones is widely appreciated and is currently the subject of intense research. Isoflavones appear to protect against hormone-related disorders such as breast cancer. Isoflavones do this by competing with body's own estrogen for the same receptor sites on cells. Some of the risks of excess estrogen can be lowered in this way.
Isoflavones can also have estrogen activity. If during menopause the body's natural level of estrogen drops, isoflavones can compensate by binding to same receptor sites thereby easing menopause symptoms as a result.
The best way to consume isoflavones is in the form soy, so you can benefit from other healthy components of soy. Soy contains many isoflavones, but the most beneficial are genistein and daidzein. The highest amounts of isoflavones can be found in soy nuts and tempeh. Isoflavones are fairly stable. Under normal cooking methods isoflavones are not destroyed.
Health benefits of isoflavones
Research in several areas of healthcare has shown that consumption of isoflavones may play a role in lowering risk for disease. Isoflavones can fight disease on several fronts. The following potential health benefits are attributed to isoflavones:
