Soy protein is a high-quality, complete protein with a variety of health benefits.
Among soy’s most notable benefits are its effects on lowering blood cholesterol levels. In fact, more than ten years ago, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a health claim for soy on the basis of its heart health benefits. Since then, government agencies in eleven other countries have followed suit.
Additionally, soy is the only widely available plant source of protein that is considered a “complete” source of protein, comparable in protein quality to meat, milk and eggs.
