An animal feed containing 0.00002 to 0.1% by weight of:

Animal feed containing anabolic isoflavones

Nonestrogenic 5-methyl-alkoxy-isoflavone, namely, 5-methyl-7-methoxy-isoflavone, 5-methyl-7-ethoxy-isoflavone, 5-methyl-7-isopropoxy-isoflavone, and 5-methyl-7-(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)-isoflavone are useful as weight-gain promoters in feeds from which the 7-methoxy and 7-ethoxy isoflavones have been excluded because of estrogenic effects. They are more effective than 7-isopropoxy-isoflavone as well.

Metabolic 5-methyl-isoflavone-derivatives, process for the preparation

A method of anabolic treatment in humans comprises administering a compound of the following formula: ##SPC1## Wherein R is halosubstituted, nitrosubstituted, or unsubstituted benzyl, R.sup.2 is hydrogen, methyl or carboxy, and R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are hydrogen, methoxy or nitro. Pharmaceutical compositions are also disclosed.
