Soy helps In weight loss
Younger women and men with busy family and work schedules find it difficult to eat and exercise properly. Due to declining estrogen levels, many middle-age women suddenly find it more difficult to maintain their trim figure of previous years.
This is a natural part of the aging process. With decreased physical activity, men face the same weight gain problem as they age.
Increased fat levels are known to lead to increased risk of several diseases, including heart disease, stroke, bone fractures, breast cancerand numerous other cancers.
New research has shown that soy, apart from being a low-calorie food, possesses unique weight reducing properties. Studies show that soy may literally stop your fat cells; via several mechanisms in both women and men.
Revival Soy is the first and only soy under license from the Japanese government for weight loss. The Japanese are the thinnest, longest living people in the world. As the patent demonstrates, soy bioactive compounds literally shrink your fat cells.
Soy is naturally a low-calorie, low-carbohydrate food, but a recent university study has documented two key properties of soy protein that help with weight loss independent of low-calorie content.
In other words, soy has inherent medical properties, apart from low calorie content, that help with weight loss. The study shows that consumption of soy protein rich in isoflavones decreases fat deposition (storage) while increasing lean muscle mass.
The researchers concluded that Isoflavone-rich soy may attenuate the increase in fat deposition and prevent loss in lean tissue during menopause.
Soy increases the rate at which your fat cells burn stored fat. Other studies have shown that soy protein increases fat activity directly inside of fat cells. In other words, soy protein increases your fat cells metabolism rate.
Soy makes you feel full because it is a low-glycemic index food that minimizes insulin fluctuations. Soy protein prevents your blood glucose levels from soaring, thus reducing large insulin secretions that store glucose as fat in your body.
