Those that if worry about a healthful and nutritional feeding, of certainty that already its potentialities had discovered. Those that not yet, go today descobriz them. I speak of the soy. Discovery has already some thousands of years in China, still is currently associated with a vegetarian feeding even so must be applied in any balanced feeding. The soy has a rare protein wealth, equivalents to the ones of the meat, the fish, milk and eggs, as well as lípidos, staple fibres and some vitamins and minerals. È therefore an extremely nutritional food, of high biological, rich value in proteins of good quality and photochemist composites as isoflavona (isoflavona is a made up of the soy, also called fitoestrogénio, that actua in the prevention of crónico-degenerative illnesses as the cancer of the breast, of cólo of the uterus and the prostate. Its chemical structure is similar to estrogénio (hormona feminine) e, therefore, it is a substance capable to alliviate the effect of the menopause and the daily pay-menstrual tension. The estrógenicas properties also help to reduce one another problem caused for the hormonal deficiency: osteoporose) the soy is also mineral source that prevents the malnutrition as copper, iron, match, potassium, magnesium and vitamins of the complex B, important to improve the production of energy of the organism. The soy consumption, beyond to be a vegetal product still has advantage of, in contrast of proteins of animal origin, to contribute to reduce the cholesterol levels bad and to increase slightly the cholesterol level good. Therefore incentive its consumption in the set of a balanced feeding, for a more healthful life.
