The Soy Vitamins And Their Health Benefits

By Jana Serrano


When you choose any of the soy products, you are just at the same level with the those who eat a large variety of fruits and vegetables all in the same day. This is due to the fact that the nutritional content in these products are so many, and can be a good substitute for those who don't eat meat or any meat product. Those who are in need of building lean muscles quickly and those in weight loss programs also find the soybeans as the best solution. The soy vitamins, protein and minerals are among those that are needed in large quantities by the body.

The vitamin B12 ranks as one of the essential vitamins. It is required for the purpose of cell division as well as to promote a healthy nervous system. In fact, it is a member of the vitamin B-complex group. It is most commonly found in most animal products like milk, eggs, cheese, meat and their products.

Naturally, this vitamin does not occur in most plant products and the only natural plant source is the soybeans. This is why it is a must for those who are entirely vegetarians. Otherwise, it is found in eggs, milk, meat, cheese and the related products.

Just a single serving of soymilk or other soy products can produce up to half of the vitamin B12 that is recommended per day. This is why the nutritionists recommend it for all people, and particularly those who have limited diets of animal products like the vegans and the vegetarians.

In case the raw carrot has been recommended for you as the remedy for the proper eye functioning, then you must know just how important vitamin A is to the eyesight. In addition to this, the vitamin A plays major roles in proper immune system and proper reproductive system as well as many other body processes.

As such, you cannot afford to miss it from your diet. The best way to boost vitamin A in the diet is a daily intake of the soybean product of your choice, be it water, milk, or powder. However, the other natural sources where you will get vitamin A in plenty are mainly fruits and vegetables such as apricots, mangoes, pumpkins, the red capsicum, carrot, sweet potatoes, and peach. It is also available in offal meat, butter, and milk, among other animal products.

The other important vitamin is Riboflavin or the vitamin B2. The growth of body tissues depends on the presence of riboflavin. It plays a role in the conversion of proteins into usable nutrients in our body. As such, it helps in repair of worn out tissues, and growth of the new tissues like the skin and the eyes. Other than other sources like spinach, avocado, broccoli, meat, yeast extract, and almonds, the soybeans provide vitamin B2 in plenty.

It is also a great source of protein that comes with all amino acids and no fats, which in turn help cut on LDL cholesterol, reduce the risks of heart disease, and several other health risks. It is clear that by taking just a few servings of soy products, you are able to get most of the nutrients that comes from most of fruits, vegetables, and proteins.
