Be More 'Kidney-Friendly' By Eating Soy

By Dr. Aaron Tabor, MD
Medical Research Director at Revival Soy

CBN.com - Healthy kidney function is vital for removing metabolic waste products from the blood and for maintaining healthy cholesterol levels. Diabetics are particularly susceptible to poor kidney health due to high blood sugar levels. Some researchers have suggested that more vegetable protein supports better kidney health (1-3).

More specifically, medical studies suggest that soy protein with its isoflavones may have multiple benefits for supporting kidney health (4,5), and is an excellent choice for adding vegetable protein to one’s diet.

In a randomized clinical trial, Type II diabetics were instructed to replace their usual diet with a soy-enriched diet (6). Switching to the soy diet reduced the amount of protein and nitrogen in the urine suggesting a favorable effect on kidney function. Also, soy consumption reduced total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides. Similar lipid lowering effects also have been observed in renal transplant patients (7).

People on dialysis, who are prone to protein malnutrition, may also benefit. Preliminary data University of Kentucky reveals that dialysis patients, when given soy protein, experience a decrease in protein malnutrition, suggesting that soy protein may be beneficial in supporting a better nutritional status in dialysis patients (8).

If you are interested in soy and kidney health support, ask your health care professional about adding more soy to your diet.

Revival Soy makes getting enough soy simple and delicious. With Revival Soy, you can be sure you’re getting enough soy isoflavones in your daily diet—without the soy taste. And you can take comfort in knowing you’re using the #1 doctor-recommended soy protein supplement, backed by clinical studies and many patented benefits.

Just 1 small Revival shake or protein bar gives you the amount of soy isoflavones found in 6 cups of a typical soymilk (160 milligrams). A recent panel of international soy experts recommended up to 160 milligrams of soy isoflavones per day for all of the health benefits of soy.
