Also, egg proteins have a much more anabolic effect on
the body than soy or wheat protein.
Not exact matches
If your
body doesn't tolerate nuts or
soy, it will obviously be essential for you to use coconut milk rather
than a nut milk or
soy milk.
One caveat: whey has been shown to be more effective
than soy for improving lean
body mass when combined with resistance training.
One study, reported in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, has found that consuming milk after resistance exercise leads to greater muscle hypertrophy, a greater increase in lean
body mass, and a greater decline in
body fat
than consumption of a
soy beverage with macronutrient (proteins, carbohydrates, fats) ratios equal to that of the milk.
High protein efficiency ratio: One study showed that milk protein is taken up by the
body better
than soy.
So if lean
body mass is your goal, you may want to consider other protein sources
than soy if you're using a protein powder.
Soy is also the most genetically modified of any crop (which has it's own potentially scary issues we won't even delve into in this article)... and even worse, soy proteins in particular typically concentrate much of the phytoestrogens in soy (different than xenoestrogens), which adds a double whammy for adding belly fat to your bo

Other studies have shown that
soy protein is less effective for
body builders
than whey protein because its amino acids are more likely to go into splanchnic circulation (stomach, small intestines, colon, liver, pancreas and spleen)
than into peripheral regions such as muscle tissues.4, 5 This makes sense because whey protein provides greater amounts of the branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) leucine, isoleucine and valine as well as more methionine and lysine, all of which are critically needed for muscle building.6 - 9 Researchers have also found the low BCAA content of
soy protein adversely affects muscle building by disrupting both leucine signaling10 and the activation of myogenic translation initiation factors.
● Potential allergens ● Wheat ● Gluten ● Dairy ●

«How you take hormone medication can have a major effect on how your
body reacts to it (for example, for those requiring thyroid hormone, consuming iron, calcium, or
soy less
than four hours before taking the thyroid medication can mean the thyroid medication won't be absorbed).
