THE HUMBLE SOYBEAN
That's a laugh – the soybean is really amazing. Search on some of the links we've provided and you'll see that the soybean is seen as one of nature's most remarkable creations with health properties we cannot even start to list in full.
Farmers in China named an early variety of the Soybean 'brings happiness'. They weren't far off the mark. The protein levels in soybeans match that of beef or chicken yet soy protein has none of the saturated animal fats and cholesterol found with animal protein.
If you need reassurance we've devoted a whole part of this site to recent research about the wide ranging health benefits of soy. But here is one fact that might surprise and delight you - soybeans yield an astonishing twenty times more protein per acre that grazed beef. Imagine what would happen to hunger if we planted and ate soy more often. Not to mention not having to clear the air of all that smell. And when you taste what we are able to do with soy today, we think you'll agree with those wise old farmers that soy is indeed the food of happiness.
