| Resumen: |
Soy beans contain isoflavones, including daidzein and genistein, with biological activities related to therapeutic effects in reducing osteoporosis, decreasing adverse menopausal manifestations, providing protection from cardiovascular diseases, and reducing hormone-dependent cancers and age-related cognitive-decline. Daidzein has been described as inhibiting the aldehyde-dehydrogenase-2 enzyme (ALDH2), and reducing alcohol use in clinical pilot studies. Our aim was to evaluate the possible interactions between a soy extract product and alcohol in a crossover, single blind, randomized study. Ten healthy male volunteers participated in two experimental sessions: one with a single dose of alcohol (0. 5 g/kg, Vodka Absolut, Sweden), and the other with four capsules of a soy extract product (Super-Absorbable Soy Isoflavones, Life-Extension, United States) and, 2 h later, the same dose of alcohol. Results showed no differences in vital signs except a slightly higher significative reduction in diastolic blood pressure at 2, 3, 4, and 8 h after administration with alcohol alone in comparison with soy extract+alcohol. Ethanol-induced subjective and adverse effects were similar for both conditions with the exception of headache (higher at 8 h after alcohol alone). Our results demonstrate that a single dose of a soy isoflavone extract did not influence alcohol pharmacokinetics and pharmacological effects and did not induce any disulfiram-reaction symptoms. Soy extract and alcohol did not interact and can be administered safely. |
