"2 tbsp (32 g) of WOWBUTTER provides 28% of the daily amount of soy protein shown to help lower cholesterol"
.
Soy Beans are:
High In protein - Soya is regarded as equal to animal foods in protein quality yet it is thought that plant proteins are processed differently to animal proteins. For example, experimental studies have shown that soya protein isolates tend to lower cholesterol levels, in those people with typically high levels, while protein from animal sources may raise cholesterol levels.
Soybeans contain hormone-like substances - (called phytoestrogens) that copy the action of the female hormone oestrogen. It is thought soy can reduce menopausal symptoms (such as hot flushes).
