Kayla Girgen, a nutritionist working in the US, said that in addition to nutritional benefits, soy milk also has many positive effects on health, including supporting the heart, reducing inflammation, and reducing the risk of cancer, according to the health page Health .

Low calorie

Soy milk can be a substitute for cow's milk, especially for those who are lactose intolerant or want to be vegan.

It is a low-calorie, low-saturated fat drink and a source of high-quality plant protein.

Soy protein contains all the essential amino acids the body needs, helping to maintain and grow muscle.

Support heart health

Consuming soy foods, including soy milk, may help reduce levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) in the blood, thereby reducing the risk of heart disease.

According to research, people who consume soy products at least four times a week have a lower rate of death from heart disease than those who rarely consume them.

Additionally, replacing cow's milk with soy milk may help lower blood pressure and improve overall heart health.

May reduce inflammation

Soy milk has anti-inflammatory properties due to its high antioxidant content. Antioxidants play an important role in eliminating free radicals - compounds that can damage cells and contribute to inflammation in the body.

Adding soy to your diet can reduce levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation in the blood. This is especially beneficial for people with chronic conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, or arthritis.

Reduce menopausal symptoms

During menopause, estrogen levels in the body decrease, leading to symptoms such as night sweats, mood swings, and insomnia.

Isoflavones in soybeans have the ability to mimic the action of estrogen in the body, helping to reduce these uncomfortable symptoms.

According to one study, premenopausal and menopausal women who consumed 40 mg of soy isoflavones twice daily for 12 weeks had significant improvements in both physical and mental well-being.

Reduce the risk of cancer

Consuming soy foods may help reduce the risk of certain cancers such as breast cancer, stomach cancer, prostate cancer, and liver cancer.

Isoflavones in soybeans may help regulate cell growth and reduce the risk of DNA mutations - an important factor in the development of cancer.

Notes when drinking soy milk

One of the common problems with consuming this beverage is a soy allergy. You may experience symptoms such as rashes, itching, facial swelling, and difficulty breathing.

Some people also experience digestive issues after consuming soy milk, including stomach pain, diarrhea, or constipation. This may be due to the body not being used to certain compounds in soy, especially oligosaccharides – a type of carbohydrate that is difficult to digest and can cause bloating.

Soybeans contain goitrogens, compounds that can reduce the activity of enzymes involved in thyroid hormone production. If you have a thyroid condition, consult your doctor before consuming soy milk regularly.
