Soy Protein Isolate is the highest quality soy protein supplement you can buy. Formulated with Supro® it’s a great tasting shake that mixes easily and instantly.
Soy Protein Isolate is a high-quality, complete, plant-based protein that is equal in protein quality to meat, milk and eggs. In fact, soy protein has the highest possible PDCAAS score for a protein (1.0), which is a measure of the digestibility and availability of essential amino acids.
Soy Protein has many reported potential health benefits. Results from a meta-analysis of 38 clinical studies concluded that soy protein consumption may help lower total blood cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol as compared to animal protein consumption. Lowering blood ("bad") cholesterol can help reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. In addition, soy protein may have an impact in raising HDL ("good") cholesterol.
In addition, the American Heart Association recommends the consumption of soy protein (with naturally occuring isoflavones) as part of a heart-healthy diet for those with elevated total and LDL cholesterol.
Supplementing your diet with Soy protein may also have antioxidant-effects. Oxidized LDL-cholesterol is damaging to your arteries. However, preliminary laboratory research suggests that the isoflavone genistein, a main component of soy protein, inhibits the oxidation of LDL-cholesterol leading to improved health.
Blood Coagulation: Blood clots are often responsible for completely blocking an artery already narrowed by atherosclerosis. Yet, laboratory studies suggest that soy isoflavones, especially genistein, have a favorable effect on blood clot formation.
Blood Pressure: Uncontrolled high blood pressure can lead to stroke, heart attack, heart failure or kidney failure. Recent evidence, however, suggests that consumption of soy protein may be linked to lower blood pressure. Researchers continue to examine soy protein’s effect on blood pressure.
For individuals exercising, training and building muscle, soy protein can be used as a source of high quality protein to help satisfy the higher need for protein during muscle-building by providing the necessary essential amino acids for physical and muscular development. While exercise is healthy, it does create oxidant stress that can contribute to muscle soreness, inflammation and the development of free radicals.
