Why The Soy Vitamins Are A Must In Our Diet

By Jana Serrano


When enjoying any soy product, be assured that you are not missing out. It has most of the nutrients you need to. In fact, it can be compared to the whole dairy milk in terms of nutritional content. It has protein, carbohydrates, calcium, and phosphorus. The main soy vitamins that help in the fight against diseases include vitamin A, vitamin B12, and riboflavin among others.

The vitamin B12 is among the most talked about vitamins found in the soy products. It is among the B-complex vitamins and plays a central role in cell division, the DNA synthesis, and in the proper nervous system functioning.

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.

Unfortunately, this is not one of the vitamins that is easily available in plant based products, it is more available in animal products like eggs, meat, cheese, milk, and other related products. However, it is found in plenty in the soy products and this explains why it offers the best alternative to the vegetarians and those who are conscious of the animal products. With just a single serving, you can get up to 50% of your daily requirement of vitamin B12 from the soybean products.

Everyone knows that for proper eyes, you need lots of vitamin A. The vitamin A is also required for proper immune system functioning. The soybean is known to be the best source of organic vitamin A. This is a fat soluble vitamin and has several other functions in the body including maintaining the normal reproduction. It normally comes from fruit based products and vegetables. The common sources include carrot, sweet potato, red capsicum, pumpkin, mango, apricots, rockmelon, and peach. The organic sources include milk, offal meats, and butter.

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 Riboflavin (vitamin B2) is also the other common of the vitamins found in the soy products. It is used to help in the growth and repair the body tissues. In addition to this, it plays the main role in converting proteins to the usable amino acids in the body. The growth and repair of skin tissues, eye tissues and other tissues largely depends on the presence of vitamin B2.

It is also a great source of protein that comes with all amino acids and no fats, which in turn help cut on LDL cholesterol, reduce the risks of heart disease, and several other health risks. It is clear that by taking just a few servings of soy products, you are able to get most of the nutrients that comes from most of fruits, vegetables, and proteins.
