March 27, 2009, Newsletter Issue #160: Soy Protein
Tip of the Week
Soy protein is a powder derived from soybeans that is high in protein and low in fat and calories. It's also easily digestible and a good source of proteins for vegetarians. It's also low in lactose, so lactose-intolerant people can often enjoy soy powder, as well, and it can be used as a substitute for flour in many recipes.
If you're adding protein to your diet and not working out, you may actually add too much protein to your diet, so you should check with your doctor before you add significant amounts of protein, like soy protein, to your diet. You should also know that protein powders are not regulated by the FDA, so you should only buy from reputable dealers who stock well-known and respected brands of soy protein.
