Note: Soy protein isolates
are the most highly refined soy protein products available to
consumers. They are a highly digestible source of amino acids:
the protein building blocks essential for human health. Soy protein
isolates contain about 90% protein. They are low in fat, calories
and cholesterol. They can be bought at most health food stores
and in some large grocery stores.
