The Whole Soy Cookbook - Softcover

Soybeans are among the most versatile and healthful foods ar
The Whole Soy Cookbook is a comprehensive collection of recipes using almost every form of soybased products. The recipes are easy to prepare and the ingredients are available in most supermarkets. I am a dietitian and a professionally trained chef. I currently have a catering and consulting firm that specializes in teaching and providing healthy vegetarian and low-fat cooking both locally and nationwide. Why Soy? -Soy reduces the risk of heart disease, breast cancer, prostate and colon cancer -Soy eases the symptoms of menopause -Soy is beneficial in regulating diabetes -Soy helps prevent digestive disorders, and eliminates the problems associated with milk allergies and lactose intolerance. When making soyfood choices keep in mind the health benefits are derived from the items that contain soy protein. Most brands of soy oil and soy sauce do not contain enough protein to make a difference, and they do not always contain the phytoestrogens necessary for disease prevention. Beware of food items that make Soy-Miracle claims and do not contain whole soybeans, tofu, or Soy protein isolates. Getting soy into the diet is easy when you incorporate a little at a time. Start substituting through use of this cookbook and you will see amazing differences in your health in a very short period of time. Health and Happiness to you!
