Soy Protein is a dietary supplement formulated to promote muscle health, muscle growth, and cardiovascular health. Soy protein is available in powder form from Natura-Genics®.
Key Ingredients
Soy Protein is a combination of soy protein isolate and bee pollen. Soy protein contains all essential amino acids and is a great source of protein. Bee pollen is included for additional nutritional value.
Benefits of Soy Protein
• Promotes Muscle Health and Growth
Along with appropriate strength training, research has found that soy protein promotes increased muscle protein synthesis which supports muscle building. Soy protein contains BCAAs, which are the branched amino acids leucine, isoleucine, and valine. BCAAs have been shown to support muscle building, promote decreased muscle fatigue, and support reduced muscle soreness. Bee pollen has an impressive nutritional profile containing substances such as proteins, fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants. Some studies have found that bee pollen may promote increased muscle mass in malnourished individuals.
• Promotes Cardiovascular Health
Soy protein may have some properties that support cardiovascular well-being. Research has found that soy is generally good for the heart and blood vessels because it provides polyunsaturated fat, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, and is low in saturated fat. Replacing some animal proteins with plant proteins such as soy may support a reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases. Due to its antioxidant properties, bee pollen may promote the prevention of lipids oxidizing, clumping together, or restricting blood vessels, which may pose a risk to the heart. Additionally, some research has found that bee pollen may also promote lower levels of bad LDL cholesterol.
