Featured Ingredients:

Soy

Soy is a subtropical plant, native to Asia, that was introduced to the Europe in the 1700s and to the United States in the 1800s. It contains protein, isoflavones and fiber, which are commonly considered to have health benefits. In addition to its protein benefits, people use soy products to prevent or treat a variety of health conditions, including high cholesterol levels, menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, osteoporosis, memory problems, high blood pressure, breast cancer, and prostate cancer.

Whey Protein

Whey protein is a product isolated from whey, the liquid material created as a byproduct of cheese production. Whey is left over when milk coagulates and contains everything that is soluble from milk. The effects of whey protein on health are of great interest and whey protein itself is being investigated as a way of reducing certain disease risks. Whey is the protein of choice for serious athletes, as it helps to develop and sustain lean, strong and well-defined muscles. Whey Protein also lowers cholesterol and provides all the essential daily amino acids.

Inulin

Inulin is used by plants such as roots and rhizomes as a means of storing energy. In foods, it is commonly used instead of sugar, fat or flour because it has a minimal impact on blood sugar.
