Izoflawony są fitoestrogenami, z czego można by wnioskować, że będą działać korzystnie na organizmy drobiu. Istnieją jednak doniesienia o negatywnych skutkach ich pobierania. Niniejszy przegląd podsumowuje aktualną wiedzę na temat metabolizmu izoflawonów (w tym wpływu mikrobioty jelitowej, metabolizmu fazy I i II), a także dystrybucji izoflawonów i ich metabolitów w tkankach. Ponadto dokonano przeglądu opublikowanych badań dotyczących wpływu izoflawonów na drób.
