- Simple And Effective
Seamus, Northern Ireland 30/12/2008
This was my first try on Soy Isolate instead of Whey or Casein proteins. The first thing I noticed was how 'fluffy' the protein powder was compared to the more dense Whey powder.
Mixing it was very simple, as was drinking it (I took it with water). The powder is flavorless -entirely- and I think you could get bored of it very quickly if just mixing with water each time. It is possible to mix it with a juice or milk (a Soy milk is the obvious choice though).
It will take a week or so to see how I react to this supplement, but first reaction is good. Just prefer if there were flavors available.

Isatori Soy Protein Isolate is a good choice for those who are lactose intolerant or do not like traditional protein shakes. This plant based protein still has a high level of amino acids to help protein synthesis. Isatori Soy Protein Isolate can be used by those looking to build lean muscle, those who are following a low carb diet or those who require extra protein in their diet.
ISatori’s Soy Protein Isolate is a low-fat, cholesterol-free source of high-quality protein that makes a delicious tasting, naturally flavoured nutrition shake. Soy protein is a high-quality, complete, plant-based protein that contains a full range of amino acids like meat, milk and eggs. It is one of the only plant proteins that can serve as a lone source of protein in the diet. In fact, soy protein gets a maximum PDCAAS score for protein of 1.0, which is a measure of its digestibility and availability of essential amino acids.
Soy Protein has many reported potential health benefits. Results from a meta-analysis of 38 clinical studies concluded that soy protein consumption may have positive effects upon total blood cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol as compared to animal protein consumption. In addition, the American Heart Association recommends the consumption of soy protein (with naturally-occurring isoflavones) as part of a heart-healthy diet for those with elevated total and LDL cholesterol.
Supplementing your diet with Soy protein may also have antioxidant-effects. Oxidized LDL-cholesterol is damaging to your arteries. However, preliminary laboratory research suggests that the isoflavone genistein, a main component of soy protein, may inhibit the oxidation of LDL-cholesterol, leading to improved health.
For individuals exercising, training and building muscle, soy protein can be used as a source of high quality protein to help satisfy the higher need for protein during muscle-building by providing the necessary essential amino acids for physical and muscular development.
While exercise is healthy, it does create oxidant stress that can contribute to muscle soreness, inflammation and the development of free radicals. Research shows that soy protein may speed up muscle recovery after exercise. The isoflavones found in soy protein produce antioxidant effects, which may help reduce soreness and inflammation and may help athletes return to the gym more quickly.
iSatori’s Soy protein contains a guaranteed level of isoflavones to ensure consumers are getting the most recovery benefits. ISatori Soy protein is also low glycaemia index (GI) and comes in great-tasting flavours to satisfy any palate.
