Soy Natto
In the U.S., soy is most often consumed in the form of the food ingredients
soy protein isolate and soy flour, and as tofu or whole beans in a cooked form
of one kind or another.
In the Orient, soybeans are often cultured in a way similar to how we make
yogurt, and somewhat differently from how we make tofu. This unique
live-culturing-method yields powerful benefits which are only faint shadows in
Americanized, machine-processed soy foods.
Levels of the phytonutrient isoflavones and sulfurophanes are remarkably
higher in the Oriental-type cultured soy.
This could account for the greater benefits observed in soy-rich Asian diets
over American soy diets. Results of the recommended increases in dietary soy to
reduce breast cancer risk may fall short of expectations unless the specific,
high-isoflavone / high sulfurophane soy forms are specified.
Soynatto is an isoflavone optimized and sulfurophane optimized form of traditionally
cultured soy, carefully handled, using specially developed techniques
to preserve the vital qualities. Iridesca provides 200mg of Soynatto,
plus another 200mg of isoflavone and sulfurophane-rich soy sprouts per
serving.
Soy Natto is a fermented soy beans food in dried form. Fermentation
of soy beans produces more taste, more nutrition and more functions
than soy itself and reduces undesirable properties. As fermented soy
beans, Natto has recently received healthy attention because of its
natural enzyme, Nattokinase. Nattokinase prevents and/or dissolves blood
clots which contributes to arteriosclerosis, heart attacks, strokes
and senile dementia. Soy Natto products support a healthy and nature
conscious diet and life style.
