Soy Protein

The diet of protein is important for everyone, children, teenagers, and adults. Unfortunately, some are lactose intolerant or needs low cholesterol diet, which might compromise their amino acids and proteins intake. Good thing, there is soy protein; it contains high quality protein content with essential amino acids needed by the body. Soy protein has two important qualities, first its amino acid composition and digestability! Soy proteins digestability is amazingly almost the same with animal proteins, as compared to other veggie proteins.

We all have natural amino acids inside our body, as our liver produces it in cases of less supply, so protein and amino cells continue doing its work for growth and cell development, however, if there is no intake of essential amino acids, our body naturally breaks it down. Observe a person starving himself, he becomes thin, because his body eats up its own protein and amino acids, very bad for one’s health, because it causes muscle breakdown, retarding cell replenishment and development.

There is always a need for our body to get the 9 important amino acids and nitrogen to synergize and synthesize proteins, lacking one important amino acid needed for synthesizing proteins, can create havoc in our system. That is why vegetarians are encouraged to take more soy proteins to avoid deficiency in protein and essential amino acids.

Research shows soy proteins are high in quality and thus support synthesizing protein in our body for growth and development.

WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU LACK SOY PROTEIN?
Deprivation of soy protein can cause marasmus, a severe protein deficiency.  It commonly afflicts children, but it can affect adults as well, especially those who are suffering from anorexic tendencies. Marasmus is a disease eating your body, until its all bones and skin, and death occurs.

Marasmus attacks first the muscles, actually this is what happens when you starve yourself because you want to have a fast weight loss.  This can be deadly as it eats away your healthy muscles, little by little, it weakens your heart.  Your brain can be affected, observe a person who has not eaten for days, he is slow in understanding, as it impairs brain development and maintenance.  For children afflicted with marasmus, they can end up mentally retarded.

Your metabolism starts to slow down, your body can’t insulate yourself from cold, and the onset of other infections can easily attack you with your immune system weakened.

Marasmus kills your hunger pangs, and creates a depressive state of emotion, as you prefer not to do any activity at all.  This is common to children; however, the symptoms are quite the same with anorexic patients who are dying of starvation.

Marasmus patients because they lack protein, they don’t feel hunger pangs as their body adjusts to meet the demands of amino acids and protein crisis inside the body, later on it drastically decreases protein at the expense  of brain, lungs and heart, your intestines tract are also affected, and later on, your body wouldn’t want to take in food, once the sickness in not cured, your body starves to death.
Soy protein prevents the onset of marasmus.

KWASHIORKOR
Kwashiorkor is another cause of protein deficiency. Soy protein is a powerful blocker of kwashiorkor especially for children. Kwashiorkor attacks once a unhealthy person with protein deficiency, experiences infection or measles.

The muscle starts to waste, hormones and protein becomes unbalanced as it diminishes. Children afflicted with kwashiorkor have abnormally big tummies as compared to their thin bodies because of a fluid leak in their stomach and abnormal growth of a fatty liver.

Kwashiorkor patients are children, as adults have better ways of sustaining themselves. Children with deficiency in proteins suffer from swollen face and limbs, but still small. Without protein, the fat necessary for the body is taken out of the body, making the tummy to grow abnormally bigger.
The abnormal liver lacking enzymes cannot clean up toxins inside the body, so it poisons the system little by little and infections sets in. Even the color of the hair of the child diminishes as it lacks enough nutrients. The child’s skin is scaly and patchy! It is also prone to gangrene.

Without enough soy, protein children who are lactose intolerant can suffer from serious illnesses, free radicals creating havoc in health and later on uncontrollable bacterial growth.

COMBINED ILLNESS OF KWASHIORKOR AND MARASMUS
Soy protein can prevent the onset of both kwashiorkor and marasmus attack combined. People suffering from dual attacks of this sickness are usually characterized by edema and uncontrollable thinness of the body caused by inability to eat.

Enough soy protein for lactose intolerant children and even adults keeps kwashiorkor and marasmus attacks at bay.

DEFENDING HEALTH THROUGH SOY BEANS
Soy proteins provide amino acids to help anti -bodies blast evil free radicals. Hemoglobin is synthesized to strengthen health.

Finally, soy protein really gives strength to your immune system.
