Mice were maintained on a soy-based diet and administered vehicle (25 mM Na₂CO₃ or daidzein by gavage daily for 14 days. At study termination, the mice were necropsied and indicated organs weighed. VHF = females exposed to vehicle; DZF = females exposed to daidzein. Values represent the mean ± SE (N = 8).
