Phytoestrogens in Functional Foods starts by addressing the biosynthesis of polyphenol phytoestrogens in plants, and the chemistry and mechanism of action of phytoestrogens. It then explains the relations of phytoestrogens to pharmacokinetics, body composition, and cell signaling; examines reproductive hormones in females, hormone replacement therapy, and the benefits and risks associated with phytoestrogens; discusses soy isoflavones; and then looks at the antioxidant features of wine and other phytoestrogens. While extensive investigation of these topics has led to many conflicting reports, this text provides answers and insight on the major questions regarding core areas of polyphenol research.

Very good. [12], 320, [4] pages. Illustrations. Glossary of Terms and Abbreviations in Phytoestrogen Research. References. Index. Dr. Yildiz was born in Erzurum and graduated from Erzurum High School in Turkey. Dr. Yildiz studied and got BS at University of Wisconsin. He got MS and Ph.D. degrees from University of Maryland. He also worked as a Faculty member for 5 years at the UM in USA. Prof. Dr. Fatih Y ld z worked as teacher, researcher, research director, and founder at the Middle East Technical University(METU) for 38 years, in Chemical Engineering, Food Engineering, Biochemistry and Biotechnology departments. He was teacher for more then 5000 students at all levels, BS, MS, Ph.D., and higher. Dr. Yildiz published 160 research and review papers, receiving more then 1250 citations. He also published 7 scientific books which were the first book in the field. Currently, he is the founding director of Mogan International Research Center in Ankara and continues to his scientific activities. Polyphenol phytoestrogens-bioactives found in specific foods and beverages-impart antioxidant, phytoestrogenic, antiproliferative, and enzyme modulating activities within the human metabolic system. It is believed that these compounds protect against several forms of cancer, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, osteoporosis, and menopausal symptoms. Phytoestrogens in Functional Foods comprehensively details the scientific, technical, and practical aspects involved in the production, consumption, and safety of phytoestrogens in foods. The book is divided into five parts: Section I, Production, introduces the topic of phytoestrogens and addresses the biosynthesis of polyphenol phytoestrogens in plants, and the chemistry and mechanism of action of phytoestrogens. Section II, Consumption, explains pharmacokinetics, body composition, and cell signaling. Section III, Risk and Benefit Analysis, examines reproductive hormones in females, hormone replacement therapy, and the benefits and risks associated with phytoestrogens. Section IV, Optimization and Utilization, discusses soy isoflavones and health, while Section V, Applications, explains wine antioxidants and phytoestrogens.
