Question #3: Soy protein compared to whey...?
I take soy protein after workouts instead of whey because i cant stand whey flavors. What is the difference, and how can i make up for it. I know soy lacks certain amino acids.. is there anything i could buy that has the amino acids (pills, etc.)

Answer: Soy is mostly found on meats. I may not know alot about soy protein but I'm sure as hell that whey gets digested super fast! Your body is in a constant anabolic state after workouts. During these times, your muscles are in a unique position to suck up nutrients. The problem is, regular soy or casein protein never gets digested quick enough to feed your muscles while its at its anabolic state. Only whey can do that because it will go directly on your muscles just after 5 minutes of consuming it. So you might wanna reconsider about switching your shake.Anyways, about the amino acids, you could find creatine pills on almost all Vitamin shops. L-glutamine, which speeds up your recovery time is sometimes found on regular protein shakes. Just check out the nutrition facts.

Question #4: Best way to eat your soy protein powder?
So I got my big 'ol bucket a few days ago, and I'm really not enjoying the taste. The label suggests mixing 1 scoop with 4 oz of water. This just tastes like really really watered down rice/soy milk. So I mixed it with rice milk which has more of the same flavor, and it chunked up--badly. Maybe I'll try heating the milk first.What's the least "yucky" way to eat it?I'm aware that much of the powder isn't utilized, but I want a particularly high protein intake so I can build my upper body. Getting this purely from food as a vegetarian would mean that all of my meals have to be specifically high-protein, and that's very inconvenient. :(

Answer: Blend it with some sugar and peanut butter.

Question #5: Is soy protein as good for you as regular protein?
I bought some whey powder and it has 21 grams of soy protein. Is that the same?

Answer: Whey isn't soy; it comes from milk. It's what they press out of cheese and what the liquid stuff is in cottage cheese. But both whey and soy are just as good as meat if not better. You would be better off eating them in thier pure form instead of as powder though. Look up some recipes or have some cottage cheese with fruit.

Question #6: Is "soy protein isolates" good or bad?
I have been told different things, is soy protein isolates a good thing or bad? Is it a natural ingredient or manufactured?

Answer: Soy protien is junk. Your body can barely use it, and in men it increases estrogen levels, and shuts down testosterone production. Isolate just means the protien is separated form the fat and carbs. It's not very natural, either.

Answer: If you use protein drink when you work out with weights then it will help to make muscle and muscle helps burn fat, but if your just drinking it and not exercising then the extra protein will be stored as fat that you do not burn off.

Question #8: If I lift weights, will Soy protein Supplement help me?
I've been eating beans and rice everyday, but I want somethin ga little extra. Meat protein, whey and egg protein upsets my stomach. Soy, peanut butter and bean protein are easier for my stomach. But , are those acceptable types of protiens?

Answer: Yes, they are but make sure you are taking in a variety of protien and not just getting it from one source. Walnuts are very good too and have omega 3 and 6 in them as well as flaxseed. Whole grain, and legumes have lots of proiten as well. However, you need to exercise caution not to intake more protien than your body uses or you will end up storing it as fat. Protien should be consumed in small amounts throughout the day and not in bulk at once. Here's a good website with protein rich foods as well as one with a list of vegetarian atheletes.

Question #9: 50 Grams of Soy Protein?
Is this ok? I have two soy protein shakes a day along with 8 oz of lean poultry. Is it too much soy?

Answer: it's ok but not optimum for health. all foods have different nutrient profiles, higher in this and lower in that. to reduce the risk of any nutrient deficiencies it's best to vary your protein sources. try to vary your protein source with each meal
