Guest guest Posted May 3, 2000 Report Share Posted May 3, 2000 Hi everyone! I've lurked long enough, and have some thoughts in response to Debbie's on Soy Protein. :-) My experience with the flavor of soy protein is close to yours. The most tolerable and best priced soy protein that I've yet found is the chocolate flavored Challenge Protein available at GNC. You can get two large containers, with the second one at 50% off the normal price. This supplement features Supro, the trademarked product recommended in the article on protein powder that appeared in the previous issue of *Muscle Media.* Again, though, it's not the best tasting stuff in the world. :-) Good health! bflforce@...

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2000 Report Share Posted May 4, 2000 Debbie, I've used Universal Soy Pro 100, chocolate flavor, but I can't really say that it tastes much better than " wall paper paste " LOL! I sprinkle it on oatmeal and it's very tolerable that way. But nothing like Myoplex Lite! Let me know if you find a good one! jami > Looking for a good soy protein. I am not a big meat lover.

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2000 Report Share Posted May 4, 2000 Debbie, I just remembered another good source for soy protein. Have you had edamame? It's steamed soybeans, still in the pod. They are VERY tasty, esp. with just a dash of salt, and a great source of protein and low carbs. In NYC, I've been able to find a bag in the frozen food section of an Asian market. Good luck!

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 I feel a bit silly for asking this question, but is soy protein considered incomplete or complete. I have seen it classified differently among texts. I also polled a few RD's who work in the clinical setting and their opinion was that it is incomplete. Any insight would be appreciated in clearing up my confusion. Thanks, Pullman MA, RD, LDN Philadelphia PA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Foodlady, The following quote came off the website Across my kitchen Table. “Complete protein foods contain all eight essential amino acids. Animal products -- eggs, milk, and meat -- provide all eight amino acids in the proportions our bodies require. Eggs most nearly match the ideal pattern. Milk is a close second, and meats follow. Soybeans and whole rice come close to meats in protein quality. Deane Peck MS,RD,LD/N.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 I know soy protein isolate from Solae has a PDCAAs score of 1.0 and is considered equivalent to complete protein found in animal protein. I am sure there are other soy products similar to this out there in the market place.
