In the past few years chemists have found many uses for this bean and soy beans are proving to be a treasure and a bonanza. FOODS CONTAINING SOY BEAN OR MADE FROM SOY BEAN Bakery goods: Soy bean flour containing only 1% oil is now used by many bakers in their dough mixtures for breads, cakes, rolls, and pastries. This keeps them moist and soluble for several days longer. The roasted nuts are used in place of peanuts on breakfast rolls. K- biscuits and several crisp crackers have soy bean flour in them.

The allergic individual should buy only pure meat products. SOY-FREE DIET If you are feeling frustrated or helpless because you have a food allergy, you are not alone. It has been estimated that up to 60% of Americans have shown signs of food allergy at one time or another. Of those, approximately 10% exhibit symptoms serious enough to see a doctor. Normally, a food allergy does not just appear overnight, It is a progressive disease that usually results from foods eaten regularly, if not daily. Because of this, the offending food is very difficult to diagnose and a method of trial diets must be used. Once this has been done, you can begin to eliminate the food completely from your diet and incorporate acceptable substitutes. Nearly any type of food can cause an allergic reaction is susceptible people. The most common offenders include cow's milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, nuts, corn, cereal grains, chocolate, citrus fruits, peanuts, and soy products. It is even possible to be allergic to a food you have never eaten merely because it is related to an offending food in a related animal or botanical group. The following diet excludes all soybeans and soybean products such as vegetable protein, lecithin, flour and vegetable oil. The presence of soy must be checked very carefully as it is used freely as a filler and is often not listed as an ingredient on prepared foods. You must read all labels before buying and check with the manufacturer when in doubt.

  • Plant-Based Milk Alternatives
    Behind the hype: Plant-based milk alternatives Why is this an issue? Health concerns, sustainability and changing diets are some of the reasons people are choosing plant-based alternatives to cow’s milk. This rise in popularity has led to an increased range of milk alternatives becoming available. Generally, these alternatives contain less nutrients than cow’s milk. In particular, cow’s milk is an important source of calcium, which is essential for growth and development of strong bones and teeth. The nutritional content of plant-based milks is an important consideration when replacing cow’s milk in the diet, especially for young children under two-years-old, who have high nutrition needs. What are plant-based Table 1: Some Nutrients in milk alternatives? cow’s milk and plant-based Plant-based milk alternatives include legume milk alternatives (soy milk), nut (almond, cashew, coconut, macadamia) and cereal-based (rice, oat).

  • Soy Free Diet Avoiding Soy
    SOY FREE DIET AVOIDING SOY An allergy to soy is common in babies and young children, studies show that often children outgrow a soy allergy by age 3 years and the majority by age 10. Soybeans are a member of the legume family; examples of other legumes include beans, peas, lentils and peanut. It is important to remember that children with a soy allergy are not necessarily allergic to other legumes, request more clarification from your allergist if you are concerned. Children with a soy allergy may have nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, bloody stool, difficulty breathing, and or a skin reaction after eating or drinking soy products. These symptoms can be avoided by following a soy free diet. What foods are not allowed on a soy free diet? Soy beans and edamame Soy products, including tofu, miso, natto, soy sauce (including sho yu, tamari), soy milk/creamer/ice cream/yogurt, soy nuts and soy protein, tempeh, textured vegetable protein (TVP) Caution with processed foods - soy is widely used manufactured food products – remember to carefully read labels. o Soy products and derivatives can be found in many foods, including baked goods, canned tuna and meat, cereals, cookies, crackers, high-protein energy bars, drinks and snacks, infant formulas, low- fat peanut butter, processed meats, sauces, chips, canned broths and soups, condiments and salad dressings (Bragg’s Liquid Aminos) USE EXTRA CAUTION WITH ASIAN CUISINE: Asian cuisine are considered high-risk for people with soy allergy due to the common use of soy as an ingredient and the possibility of cross-contamination, even if a soy-free item is ordered.

  • Soy Products As Healthy and Functional Foods
    Middle-East Journal of Scientific Research 7 (1): 71-80, 2011 ISSN 1990-9233 © IDOSI Publications, 2011 Soy Products as Healthy and Functional Foods Hossein Jooyandeh Department of Food Science and Technology, Ramin Agricultural and Natural Resources University, Mollasani, Khuzestan, Iran Abstract: Over the recent decades, researchers have documented the health benefits of soy protein, especially for those who take soy protein daily. Soy products offer a considerable appeal for a growing segment of consumers with certain dietary and health concerns. It is quite evident that soy products do reduce the risks of developing various age-related chronic diseases and epidemiologic data strongly suggest that populations that regularly consume soy products have reduced incidence and prevalence of the aforementioned age-related conditions and diseases than populations that eat very little soy. The subject of what specific components is responsible for the plethora of reported health benefits of soybean remains a strong controversial issue, as the scientific community continues to understand what component(s) in soy is /are responsible for its health benefits. Soy constituents’ benefits mostly relate to the reduction of cholesterol levels and menopause symptoms and the reduction of the risk for several chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease and osteoporosis. A variety of soy products are available on the market with different flavors and textures and a low-fat, nutritionally balanced diet can be developed from them. This article summarized the beneficial health, nutritional and functional properties of the soy ingredients and intends to illustrate the most current knowledge with a consciousness to motivate further research to optimize their favorable effects.

In particular, the Westernization of diet, characterized by high intake of animal protein, saturated fat, and refined carbohydrates, has been shown to contribute to the development and progression of IBD. During the last decade, soybean, as well as soy-derived bioactive compounds (e.g., isoflavones, phytosterols, Bowman-Birk inhibitors) have been increasingly investigated because of their anti-inflammatory properties in animal models of IBD. Herein we provide a scoping review of the most studied disease mechanisms associated with disease induction and progression in IBD rodent models after feeding of either the whole food or a bioactive present in soybean.

  • CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of Study Tempeh Is A
    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of Study Tempeh is a traditional fermented soybean food. It is a fermented food made by the controlled fermentation of cooked soybeans with a Rhizopus mould as the tempeh starter. The tempeh fermentation by the Rhizopus mould binds the soybeans into compact white cake (Tempeh 2009,25 June). It is made by cooking and dehulling of soybeans and inoculation with different strains of Rhizopus (R. oligosporus, R. oryzae, and R. stolonifer) which will lead to solid substrate fermentation (Steinkraus K.H., 1983). Fermentation also influences the content of desirable constituents such as vitamins, protein and fatty acids (Baumann U., 1995). Tempeh provides the staple food for a large population in Indonesia and Malaysia. Like tofu, tempeh is made from soybeans, but tempeh is a whole soybean product with different nutritional characteristics and also different textural qualities. Tempeh’s fermentation process and its retention of the whole bean give it higher content of protein, dietary fiber and vitamins compared to tofu, as well as firmer texture and also with stronger flavor. Because of its nutritional value, tempeh is used worldwide in vegetarian cuisine. Tempeh is a low cost nutritious food and can be consumed by all socio-economic groups. 2 Figure 1.1 : A piece of uncooked tempe Table 1.1: Nutritional table for 100g of Tempe Water 54.9 g Energy 199 kcal Energy 833 kJ Protein 19.0 g Fat 7.7 g Sat. fatty acids 1.11 g Mono-unsat. fatty acids 1.7 g Poly-unsat. fatty acids 4.3 g Carbohydrates 17.0 g Fiber
