By Jana Serrano


When you choose any of the soy products, you are just at the same level with the those who eat a large variety of fruits and vegetables all in the same day. This is due to the fact that the nutritional content in these products are so many, and can be a good substitute for those who don't eat meat or any meat product. Those who are in need of building lean muscles quickly and those in weight loss programs also find the soybeans as the best solution. The soy vitamins, protein and minerals are among those that are needed in large quantities by the body.

To start with, vitamin B12 is part of the B-complex vitamins. It plays a major role in cell division, DNA synthesis, and in nervous system function. When there is a deficiency in vitamin B12, the victim can be diagnosed with neurological damage as well as anemia that is caused by failure of proper blood cell formation.

This means that the some types of anemia that results from the failure of a proper division and formation of the blood cells are as a result of deficiency in vitamin B12. The same can be said of neurological damage and other conditions.

Just a single serving of soymilk or other soy products can produce up to half of the vitamin B12 that is recommended per day. This is why the nutritionists recommend it for all people, and particularly those who have limited diets of animal products like the vegans and the vegetarians.

Eating a raw carrot is common for many people, all who say that they are after the vitamin A that it is known for. Although this is true, vitamin A is found in plenty in most other plant based products, whether cooked or raw.

Vitamin B2 also known as Riboflavin is the other important vitamin you are guaranteed from the soybean products. This is a vitamin that has a big role to play on how the protein is used in the body. In addition to this, it determines the growth of body tissues like the eyes, skin and other tissues and the repair of the same tissues. Although it is available from a wide variety of diet including the fortified breakfast cereals, spinach, avocado, broccoli, yeast extract, meat, and almonds, soybeans remain the best source of this vitamin.

The other important vitamin is Riboflavin or the vitamin B2. The growth of body tissues depends on the presence of riboflavin. It plays a role in the conversion of proteins into usable nutrients in our body. As such, it helps in repair of worn out tissues, and growth of the new tissues like the skin and the eyes. Other than other sources like spinach, avocado, broccoli, meat, yeast extract, and almonds, the soybeans provide vitamin B2 in plenty.

In addition to the three vitamins, there are several other vitamins that are found in lesser quantities. However, the mineral like phosphorous that are necessary to help in using the B-complex, bone formation and conversion of carbohydrates, proteins and fats into energy also available in plenty in the soybean products. The same goes for potassium that plays a role in the regulation of body acidity.
