Is it true that eating soy foods increases circulating estrogen levels in adult humans?
No. One study of Asian-American women found no statistically significant association between soy intake and urinary concentrations of estrone, estradiol, estriol, or total estrogen metabolites, and a review notes it remains unclear whether soy isoflavones exert estrogen-like effects in humans.
