Analysis showed that soy products significantly reduced body weight , BMI , body fat percent and waist circumference in overweight or obese Asian population s ( −0.37 kg , P = 0.010 ; −0.27 kg/m2 , P = 0.042 ; −0.36 % , P = 0.032 ; −0.35 cm , P = 0.049 ) and more significant effects were observed in non-menopausal women reduced body weight ( −0.59 kg , P = 0.041 ) , BMI ( −0.59 , P = 0.041 ) and waist circumference ( −0.59 cm , P = 0.041 ) in overweight or obese population s. Conclusion : This meta- analysis showed that soy products  have weight loss effects , mainly due to soy protein , isoflavone and soy fiber
Background : The effect of soy products on the weight of overweight or obese people  is controversial , so we aim ed to conduct a systematic review and a meta- analysis of published r and omized controlled trials to analyze whether supplementation with soy products can help them to lose weight .
Effect of Soymilk Consumption on Waist Circumference and Cardiovascular Risks among Overweight and Obese Female Adults
Background : Soy milk replacement in the diet might have beneficial effects on waist circumference and cardiovascular risk factors for overweight and obese subjects . Therefore , we are going to determine the effects of soy milk replacements on the waist circumference and cardiovascular risk factors among overweight and obese female adults . Methods : In this crossover r and omized clinical trail , 24 over weight and obese female adults were on a diet with soy milk or the diet with cow 's milk for four weeks . In the diet with soy milk only one glass of soy milk ( 240 cc ) was replaced instead of one glass of cow 's milk ( 240 cc ) . Measurements were done according to the st and ard protocol . Results : Waist circumference reduced significantly following soy milk period ( mean percent change in soy milk period for waist circumference : -3.79 ± 0.51 vs. -1.78 ± 0.55 % ; P = 0.02 in the cow 's milk period ) . Blood pressure , weight , liver enzymes and glycemic control indices did not changed significantly after soy milk period compared to the cow 's milk period . Conclusion : Among over weight and obese patients  , soy milk can play an important role in reducing waist circumference . However , soy milk replacement had no significant effects on weight , glycemic control indices , liver enzymes , fibrinogen and blood pressure in a short term trial
