Re: No need to avoid soy - new research

Thanks Jackie,
Hmmm. The abstract I referred to uses a different cell line and used Genistein alone.

The study you posted says

"HER2-overexpressing breast cancer cell lines were treated with genistein alone and in combination with trastuzumab."

But..the abstract at least (I think) does not mention the response to genistein alone...just that along with varying levels of Herceptin. The other issue is the level of genistein used. There seems to be research showing that super high doses of a cancer "food" can essentially overdose the cancer cell.

Dunno, given the body of research identifying her2/Er crosstalk not convinced soy is a safe option yet for her2/ER+.

Sure would be nice if it were.
