Nutrition and health
High-quality protein source: It contains essential amino acids for the human body (rich in lysine but low in methionine), and its Protein Digestibility-Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS) is 1.0, comparable to animal protein.
Lowering cholesterol: The isoflavones and saponins in soy protein help lower low-density lipoprotein ("bad cholesterol"), which may reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Supporting bone health: Isoflavones (such as daidzein) may slow down bone loss and be beneficial for menopausal women.
Metabolism and Weight Management
Enhance satiety: The high-protein feature can prolong the feeling of fullness and assist in weight control.
Stabilize blood sugar: Slow down carbohydrate absorption, suitable for diabetic patients.
Other potential benefits
Relieving menopausal symptoms: The estrogen-like effect of isoflavones may alleviate hot flashes and night sweats.
Reduce the risk of certain cancers: Epidemiological studies suggest that moderate intake may be associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer and prostate cancer.
