According to Figure 1 of this paper, Soy protein @56 gram a day normalizes the testosterone level. The SP#2 drops from an extreme high level of 1300 ng/dl (that may cause prostate cancer) to about 500 ng/dl. Excluding SP#2, the average testosterone level increases slightly. Soy protein intake @56 grams a day produces a positive result accordingly. However, I recommend 30 grams a day for better sex (lasting longer) and prostate health.  Soy + Zinc is good your liver to reduce the aromatase enzyme release.
