Soy Vs Whey Protein - Which is better? Why not both?

Even if I am asked, "better, whey proteins or soy milk is?" ... My question is, once again, "better for what?" Each of the excellent sources of protein, and have their advantages. I propose to provide for the use of at least two sources of protein to obtain the benefits of each. We need to consume protein in order to render, and replace the protein and athletes and bodybuilders are very familiar with the proteins of whey, as an excellent source of"Bio-availability" of proteins.

Protein is too important for the production of antibodies, hormones, muscle tissue again, and oxygen-carrying protein in blood, hemoglobin. All lost or protein in the body must be replaced with bio-available protein to be destroyed to build new tissue.

Our bodies are capable of many amino acids that are produced for the production of proteins, but there are nine "essential" amino acids that we can not be established, but must be obtained from the protein in our diet. Not all protein sources provide these essential amino acids. For example, the serum is an excellent source of glutathione and branched chain essential amino acids L-Leucine, L-valine and L-isoleucine.

The protein in most legumes and vegetables can contain all the essential amino acids, but are not concentrated, naturally present in foods, and is often not easy vegan enough. Proteins, in particular the branch chain amino acids. However, this can be offset by the use of concentrated sources of protein, such as found within Nutrimeals.

Almost every day, I drink one or two meals Nutrimeal replacement drinks. These drinks contain not only a combination of both soy protein and whey, which also contain proteins derived from two other sources that the rice and peas. By acquiring a mixture of proteins from these four sources, a collection of allessential amino acids and the benefits that they give to everyone.

Soya beans contain high amounts of protein. Soy protein and soy isoflavones have been found to help reduce the symptoms of menopause, to reduce the risk of osteoporosis and prevent a number of endocrine disorders, such as endometrial, breast and prostate cancer . (Neither of soy or soy isoflavones increase the risk of breast cancer, in fact, veryInstead, they help maintain the health of the breast.)

Furthermore, it was noted that the soy plants to maintain heart health. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has 25 grams of soy protein can be detected per day to reduce the risk of heart disease.

Soy protein has also been shown that the thyroid gland, which contribute to the achievement of a thinner body to help. In the case of soy allergy, on the contrary to be true ... decreased metabolism and weightto win.

If you are not allergic to soy, there are very few side effects, including soy in the diet. The most common side effect of soy is the production of intestinal gas. Flatulence is a common side effect of all beans (including soy), included with the action of intestinal bacteria fermentation of the indigestible sugars in beans. People do not have the enzyme alpha-galactosidase is required to reduce the sugar that intestinal bacteria on a solid andThe production of gas.

Beano, purchased over-the-counter, contains alpha-galactosidase, and regular use may be capable of producing gas from the reduction of oligosaccharides () bean sugars before the bacteria is reduced in the colon, the possibility of to ferment sugars.

For those who would be allergic to soya, are not the only problem of the gas, but significant diarrhea, and swelling, hives, skin rash, and the worst case, with breathing problems. Soy isoflavones are not the sameas a pure soy protein, and even if you are allergic to soy, do not hurt, were allergic to soy isoflavones such as soy protein () is the allergen in the allergy can not be found in soy isoflavones .

Whey protein is by athletes and bodybuilders, because the highest levels of essential amino acids, particularly branched chain amino acids, which are metabolized in the muscles are not used in the liver. Protein is essential forRepair not only the muscles but also many other tissues of the body. Whey is the loss of weight and build muscle in those who are working very useful, but will do little to build muscle than in those with a sedentary lifestyle.

Whey protein has an effect on the gastro-intestinal tract in the same way as yogurt. Therefore, it is as a natural remedy for many intestinal problems. In fact, it is often used in Sweden, in order to prevent intestinal problems, gas, and constipation. However, since the serum obtainedfrom a source of dairy products, it (the liquid by-product of sour milk ... cheese is solid and the liquid has dried part of the protein) as a source of whey. Therefore, subjects with lactose intolerance should avoid whey protein, soy protein, and control only as bloating, constipation, bloating, and can be substantial. Over-the-counter Lactaid is to help the enzyme to reduce milk derived from milk sugar found in milk whey Products.

Since both whey proteins and soy milk can lead to constipation, it is important to drink as a substitute for a meal, as Nutrimeals that the fibers to overcome this happen to find.

Whey protein is a good alternative for those who are allergic to soy, and vice versa, but a mixture of soy and whey, the user with the advantages of each, especially when mixed with enough fiber to make as already said. Although the sale of the company> Protein Supplements tout the benefits of what they sell as "the best" if soy, whey, or a combination of rice and pea protein, but taken together the last two numbers between 85 and 90% who proteins and is biologically 'good to know that USANA Health Sciences, Inc. was smart enough to take all sources of four proteins combine in their Nutrimeals substitute for a meal, along with a low glycemic sugar, vitamins and minerals with fiber . The budget ishis greatest strength as a perfect dish to replace.
