Summary

This is a 16-week intervention to determine the efficacy of an isoflavone-rich soy based meal supplement to improve bone health and prevent weight and fat gain in 18-19 year old college females. The primary hypothesis is that participants who receive soy will have favorable changes in blood markers of bone and less weight and fat gain. The soy is provided by Physicians Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Revival Doctor-formulated soy protein).
