[Lovers India] Benefits of Soy Protein for Women

Soy has been a regular source of food in other parts of the world for
centuries, but it's just now becoming popular in Western culture. We
see soy milk, soy yogurt and edamame on the grocery store shelves, but
sometimes we don't really know why we should be eating them. What's so
great about soy protein, and why is it better for us than other
sources of protein? Turns out that soy protein is of great benefit for
a woman's overall health, including muscle strength, heart health and
strong bones. Grab that container of soy milk and read on.

Build Muscles Without Building Fat

Protein is necessary for a healthy body and good muscle growth, but
many animal sources of protein also include high levels of calories
and fat. According to RevolutionHealth.com, soy foods are a great
source of plant protein as they are cholesterol-free and low in
saturated fat. Try substituting soy products for your normal, higher
fat protein sources. Instead of a hamburger, have a vegetarian soy
burger. Top your toast with soy nut butter instead of butter and jam.
Eat a handful of roasted soy nuts instead of peanuts, pecans or
pistachios.

Have a Healthy Heart

Soy foods contain the good fats, those essential, polyunsaturated
omega-3 fats that, according to RevolutionHealth.com, are linked with
a lower risk of heart disease. Additionally, including more plant
protein instead of more carbohydrates in your diet helps to lower your
cholesterol. Soy protein also provides fiber, which is also associated
with a lower risk of cardiovascular disease. Choose minimally
processed soy foods for the best heart benefits; tofu and soy milk are
great options.

Keep Your Bones Strong

Osteoporosis can be a great concern for women, but according to Gloria
Tsang, R.D. in an article published on HealthCastle.com, including soy
protein in your diet is one way help keep your bones strong and
healthy. Soy products contain high levels of calcium, and soy also
contains magnesium and boron, which work with the calcium to build
healthy bones. Two studies cited by Tsang show that the isoflavones in
soy may reduce the risk of fracture and increase bone mineral density
in post-menopausal women.
