Soybeans: not only protein, but also the secret weapon for hydrated skin

You may already be familiar with the health benefits of soybeans, which are rich in protein. However, did you know that soybeans contain compounds that promote healthy skin?

According to research, consuming soy may make your skin feel more hydrated and even help reduce fine lines (yes, you heard that right). A clinical study published in the journal Nutrients in September 2023, conducted on postmenopausal women, found that participants who consumed 30 grams of soy protein per day for six months had increased skin hydration, along with wrinkle depth and pigmentation. Decreased composure.

The discovery sparked curiosity about its significance. Dr. Mark Messina, director of nutritional science and research at Soy Nutrition Institute Global (SNI Global), is interpreting the research results in concise and easy-to-understand language, allowing you to have more time to enjoy snacks while maintaining healthy and hydrated skin.

Unraveling the science behind soy and skin, Mark Messina notes that previous research suggests soy isoflavones may have skin health benefits, but this benefit is often underappreciated. Therefore, SNI Global and the United Soybean Council decided to fund a clinical trial specifically focusing on soy and skin.

Use of soy silk drawing protein

图片
The soy silk drawing protein is a fibrous plant protein with a texture similar to muscle fiber formed by the production and processing of soy protein through a special process. The classification of soy silk drawing protein is divided according to its structure. There are thick silk type, thin silk type, soft silk type, hard silk type, smooth silk, astringent silk, etc. According to the different silk structure and the tensile strength of the silk, how much A combination of plant silk protein can be used to produce ham sausage, minced meat, beef jerky and canned food. The taste of the food is basically the same as ordinary meat food, but the price of plant silk protein is only 1/of the lean pork. 5. The protein content is equivalent to 2-3 times that of fish, meat, and eggs.

 According to market needs, through the selection of different proteases, the adjustment of process conditions and the degree of hydrolysis, a variety of products with different functional characteristics can be developed and produced. (1)Injectable protein isolate :  The product is used in the salted solution for injection of whole meat products, which can reduce the cooking loss of meat products and improve the quality of individual rows and cut surfaces of meat products. Since the product is usually added in a relatively small amount, below 3%, it is not necessary to strictly control the bitterness. Such products are required to have a lower viscosity, and at the same time, the increase in foaming properties and the decrease in gel properties must be controlled within a certain range. The viscosity is mainly determined by the molecular mass of the protein. The greater the molecular mass, the greater the viscosity. 80% of soybean protein has a molecular mass of more than 100,000 and
