Soybeans by T.Hagihara.
Looking for some healthy foods to add to your diet? Check out soy!
Did you know that soy is one of the only plant sources of Omega-3 fatty acids and that using soy meat alternatives will reduce your daily calorie intake? Fortified soy milk also contains calcium and vitamins A and D – just like cow’s milk – but comes without the cholesterol and saturated fat.
These were just some of the things we learned when we took part in a teleconference on the facts and science of soy nutrition. One of the guest speakers was Stacey L.
