Soy contains the isoflavones (also called phytoestrogens) genistein and diadzen that are not found in any other foods. These isoflavones have been scientifically proven to reduce blood cholesterol levels and slow down bone loss, thus preventing heart disease and osteoporosis. For some women, isoflavone intake also has reduced symptoms of menopause, specifically hot flashes.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has determined that 25 grams of soy protein per day will reduce blood cholesterol levels by about 12 percent. Here are examples of common soy foods and their usual soy protein content range. Check labels on the brands you buy.

Global Soy Protein Crisps Market Overview
A growing number of different diseases and increasing health consciousness, growing demand for products that have high protein content and high protein fiber, and increasing demand for healthy ready-to-eat (RTE) and processed food products, are driving the growth of the Global Soy Protein Crisps Market over the forecasted period. Consumption of soy protein and soy protein products is effectively preventing and reducing the risk of such diseases. The addition of soy protein to the diet can reduce the risk of developing diabetes. Also, soy protein in the diet helps in preventing breast cancer or breast cancer recurrence in some women. However, the results or the effects of soy in women with breast cancer are unclear. The health issue of protein deficiency is influencing the consumer across the world and the demand for high protein food products is at its peak. And hence, the increasing demand for high protein products is also boosting the growth of the global soy protein crisps market. However, changing consumer behavior and interest in alternative-protein sources due in part to health and environmental concerns as well as animal welfare have made space for growth in the alternative-proteins market, which, in turn, is driving the demand for soy protein crisps.
