Isatori Soy Protein Isolate 500g
Summary
ISatori’s Soy
Protein Isolate
is a low-fat,
cholesterol-free
source of high-quality protein that makes a delicious tasting,
naturally flavoured nutrition shake. Soy protein is a high-quality,
complete, plant-based protein that contains a full range of
amino acids like meat, milk and eggs. It
is one of the only plant proteins that can serve as a lone source of
protein in the diet. In fact, soy protein gets a maximum PDCAAS score
for protein of 1.0, which is a measure of its 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 have positive effects upon total blood
cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol as compared to animal protein
consumption. In addition, the American Heart Association recommends the
consumption of soy protein (with naturally-occurring 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, may inhibit the oxidation of LDL-cholesterol, leading to
improved health.
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. Research shows that soy protein may speed up muscle
recovery after exercise. The isoflavones found in soy protein produce
antioxidant effects, which may help reduce soreness and inflammation
and may help athletes return to the gym more quickly.
iSatori’s Soy protein contains a guaranteed level of
isoflavones to ensure consumers are getting the most recovery benefits.
ISatori Soy protein is also low glycaemia index (GI) and comes in great-tasting flavours
to satisfy any palate.
