Soy Power Powder (Micronized) 300 grams Item Catalog Number: 00304 |
|
Soy products are beneficial to cardiovascular and overall health because of their high content of polyunsaturated fats, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, low content of saturated fat, and biologically active compounds called phytochemicals.1
Among them, soy protein and isoflavones (phytoestrogens) have gained considerable attention for their potential role in improving cardiovascular health. Clinical trials and animal studies showed that ingestion of soy proteins improves blood lipid profiles, including helping maintain triglyceride, total and LDL cholesterol levels and HDL cholesterol levels that are already within normal range.
Using Soy Power Powder is an inexpensive way to gain the nutritional benefits of soy proteins and fatty acids while obtaining the health benefits of soy isoflavones. The average isoflavone breakdown of 15 grams of Soy Power shown below was determined by an independent assay. The result shows that consuming one to two teaspoons of Soy Power Powder daily will supply roughly the same amount of isoflavones found in the average, daily Japanese diet.49-51
