Soy protein has roughly 25 g of approved health claims per day, which is known to lower total cholesterol and LDL. Soy has a variety of powerful ingredients, including fiber, isoflavones, phytic acid, saponins and trypsin inhibitors. Soy has been seen to have several harmful consequences. Numerous studies have raised concerns about the potential negative effects of it because of the allergens present and the antinutrient agents they contain, which prevent micronutrient absorption. It may also result in hypothyroidism because it lacks some essential amino acids, making it a source of incomplete protein. Additionally, it might have hormonal effects on infants later in life.
