Childhood soy intake may reduce breast cancer risk | Health | Reuters:
"Women who regularly ate soy as children may have a lower risk of developing breast cancer, a study of Asian- American women suggests.

Researchers found that among nearly 1,600 Asian Americans with or without breast cancer, higher soy intake throughout life was associated with a lower risk of the disease. But the strongest protective effect was seen with childhood soy intake."
