In this video I discuss what are soybeans, how soy is produced, and some of the health benefits of soy.

Transcript (partial)

We start with legumes, which are seeds or pods of a leguminous plant, like peas, beans and peanuts. Soybeans are legumes, and they provide both oil and protein products.

As the soybean is processed, oil is extracted, and the meaty part that is left is used to feed livestock, or made into soy protein isolate.

100g of whole soy contains 9 fat, 10 carb…6 are fiber, 17 protein, and contain micros.

Soy contains phytates which are antioxidant compounds, but phytates do block the absorption of some minerals.

Soy also contains a lot of isoflavones, which may help decrease the risk of breast cancer, however, the research is still in its early stages.

Not everything about soy is good though, In the US, 90%of the soy produced is genetically modified, and most of the soy crop is exposed to a chemical solvent during its processing.

Bottom line, Soy appears to have many health benefits, as long as it is organic.
