Revival Soy Doctor Q&A's
Name: Phyllis

Question:
I would love to have a sample of Revival to see how it would work for me. However, I live in Toronto, Ontario and I understand you don't ship to Canada. I don't know anyone who lives in the U.S. To have it shipped to. I've heard so many positive things of this product. Any suggestions on how to obtain it here? Thanks!

Answer:
Hello Phyllis,

You will be glad to know that we have many customers who order from Canada and have for several years.

Before we get started, please read the following: We do not give medical advice. We provide nutritional information regarding Revival Soy products and information available in the public domain for the uses of soy. We advise you to discuss your personal medical issues with your physician. I hope our information will be helpful to you.


Can Revival be shipped internationally?

Yes. We can ship orders anywhere in the world. Contact us with what products you want and the address (including country) you want it shipped to for a price quote.

We would not be able to send you a sample, but you can order anytime.
The Revival Soy products taste great and provide SO many benefits and great results.

How much soy should I consume?
How much Revival do I have to eat to see results?

Eating enough soy protein and soy isoflavones is essential to obtain soy’s full benefits. An international panel of leading soy researchers determined that 100 to 160 milligrams of soy isoflavones per day are likely needed to achieve all of the potential benefits of soy isoflavones. The FDA states that 25 grams of soy protein per day, with a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. The American Heart Association recommends 50 grams of soy protein per day.

We have an excellent summary of this at http://www.revivalsoy.com/whysoy/article.html?article=amount&pid=3000

How soon will I see results?

Our suggested usage is to enjoy 1 naturally-concentrated (6x) Revival bar or shake per day. Use Revival's baked soy chips, soy pasta, soy nuts, & soy "coffee" to boost protein intake.

EXPERT PANEL RECOMMENDATIONS:

Appropriate Isoflavone Food Fortification Levels: Results of a Consensus Conference.

Several leading isflavone researchers convened recently to establish appropriate isoflavone food fortification levels. A consensus was achieved after reviewing human studies in the areas of menopause, osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. For the relief of menopausal symptoms, an intake of 60 mg aglycones was proposed, but consumption of soy protein in conjunction with the isoflavones was not specifically recommended. For improvement in bone mineral density, consumption of 60 to 100 mg aglycones per day, without any concomitant soy protein, was suggested. The consensus panel determined that the minimal intake needed to reduce serum LDL-cholesterol is between 37 and 62 mg aglycones per day, depending on prior cholesterol status (normo- vs. hypercholesterolemia), in conjunction with approximately 25 g of soy protein. The minimal intake for potentially reducing the risk of cancers of the breast, colon and prostate in humans was suggested to be between 50 and 110 mg per day of aglycones. No concomitant soy protein might augment activity of the isoflavones. For health benefits, recommended aglycone intakes ranged from 60 to 100 mg per day (100 to 160 mg glycosides). However, the panel recommended an isoflavone intake of 60 mg of aglycones per day (100 mg glycosides) as a reasonable and responsible food fortification level. The issue of whether soy protein needs to be consumed in conjunction with isoflavones to obtain optimal health benefits requires further experimental investigation.


RECOMMENDED LEVEL OF SOY PROTEIN AND SOY ISOFLAVONES:

Soy Protein (1)
25-50 grams/day

Total Isoflavones (2)
Heart Health: 60 - 105 mg/day
Menopausal Symptoms: 100 mg/day
Bone Mineral Health: 100 - 160 mg/day
Breast Health: 85-183 mg day
Colon Health: 85-183 mg/day
Prostate Health: 85-183 mg/day
Food Fortification Level: 100 mg/day
