Soy protein isolate*, suitable for people who are lactose intolerant or allergic to gluten. A product suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
Soy protein isolate is obtained from soybeans (Glycine max L), a legume native to the Far East. It is made up of globulins and albumins, with a complete spectrum of essential amino acids and a PDCAAS of 1. GH release may be promoted by the ingestion of soy protein. Soy protein, with its isoflavones, may have a beneficial effect in obesity by reducing body weight and fat mass as part of a low-calorie diet, and may improve the control of plasma lipids (FDA 1999, 2010), blood glucose and bone trophism. In addition, together with a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, it may reduce cardiovascular risk.
