Should I switch to sugar-free soy milk?

antioxidant benefits
hunky munky asked:


I drink cow’s milk (a small mug) at night but it kinda grosses me out thinking about cow nipples. Especially cows chained up still just being milked. I’m not a veggie though, I like fish and chicken. It’s just the poor cow’s nipple thing!

Anyway, is there any benefit from soy milk - I don’t like fortified foods so can you get it without that? I hear it has antioxidants and in Japan they drink it and live for a long time.

    I love soymilk(especially the one thats called 8th continent cause theres only 50 cals per serving)and there are many benefits. One being that each contains 6.25 grams of soy protein per serving and 25 grams a day is know to help fight heart problems and high cholestorol. Defenitely drink it!

    I recommend the soy because you get protein, flavanoids, anti oxidents from it without the “saturated fat” that’s found in milk.
    Some fortification is important especially for liquids the added vitamins & minerals are easier for the body to absorb.
    However, I don’t recommend using “enriched” grains

    If you have anymore questions pertaining to fortification feel free to contact me.

    Soy is believed to help in fighting cancer. Soy is protein so it will keep you feeling full longer. Unlike cow’s milk, soy has very little fat. You are right to be concerned about sugar. High sugar intake leads to diabetes and heart disease.
