As women pass the age of 40, their ability to maintain femininity rapidly declines, leading many to experience physical and mental changes, often referred to as "fluctuations" or "yoragi."
This can cause confusion due to anxieties that were previously unnoticeable or sudden changes in physical condition.
"Equol," a soy-derived ingredient, is gaining attention for these women-specific fluctuations.
Soy foods contain soy isoflavones, which are widely known as ingredients that support women's health and beauty. However, as research has progressed, it has become clear that some people can benefit from soy isoflavones, while others cannot.
Therefore, "Equol," a soy isoflavone-derived ingredient, is now attracting attention.
"Equol" is produced when a component of soy isoflavones called daidzein is converted with the help of intestinal bacteria. This converted "Equol" is expected to be more effective than soy isoflavones in supporting the health and beauty of women in their fluctuating years.
Approximately 50% of Japanese people have the intestinal bacteria capable of producing equol.
This means that one out of every two women in their fluctuating years cannot produce equol in their intestines, even if they consume soy isoflavones.
Did you know? Equol Test Kit "Soy Check"
With the equol test kit "Soy Check," you can find out if you can produce equol simply by mailing in a urine sample.
* Please be sure to take the test *before* you start taking "Equel."
If you have taken "Equel," you will be determined to be an equol producer 100% of the time, and the results will not be accurate. If you have taken "Equel," please collect your urine sample at least 3 days later.
For those who cannot produce equol: It is recommended to utilize equol-containing supplements to directly ingest equol. In addition to making it a habit to eat soy foods such as natto and tofu, it is also important to consume plenty of oligosaccharides and dietary fiber to improve your intestinal environment.
For those who can produce equol: Equol is not stored in the body and is almost entirely excreted within 1-2 days. Therefore, even those who can produce equol must continue to eat soy *every day*. Furthermore, changes in the intestinal environment can lead to an inability to produce equol.
Please Note:
* If you are taking medication or are under medical care, please consult your doctor.
* If the product does not agree with your constitution, please do not consume it.
* We cannot accept returns or exchanges after purchase. Please understand this in advance.
