Soya

Soya-based products provide an good source of protein, along with extra benefit of fibre, vitamins and minerals.

Soya is low in fat and high in antioxidants which build disease-preventing properties.


Source of Soya

The soya bean is the seed of the soya plant. Soya foods made from the bean include:
textured vegetable protein (TVP), also known as 'veggie mince'
tofu
miso
margarine
soya dairy alternatives like soya milk and soya yoghurt.


One can try to replace meat protein to soya protein by gradually introducing soya into your weekly diet by trying soya milk in tea and coffee.

You can also try to replace one of your normal lunchtime yoghurts with a soya-yoghurt.
