Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the association between soy protein intake and bone mineral density (BMD) in women using data from 2008 and 2009 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). The study sample comprised 686 Korean women who were within the first 12 years of postmenopause and had no history of hysterectomy. Adjusting for age, weight, height and calcium intake, statistical analysis was performed among women under 4 years postmenopausal and at least 4 years postmenopausal, respectively. Among women under 4 years postmenopausal, there was no significant association between soy protein intake and BMD at lumbar spine or proximal femur. On the other hand, in the later postmenopausal women, there was a reverse correlation between soy protein intake and BMD, especially at the femoral neck and the total hip. However, the correlation disappeared with additional adjustment for total protein intake, Na intake and energy intake. In conclusion, there may be no correlation between soy protein intake and bone density in Korean menopausal women.
