No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators hope to learn about the effects of soy nuts on markers of health. When some people eat soy foods, their gut bacteria make equol. Equol is a soy metabolite (small molecule made during metabolism). The investigators will be testing blood samples to determine if markers of health are different for people who make equol versus people who do not make equol.
