Soy meat is a plant product that many blame for being harmful. At the same time, it cannot be denied that it contains protein and can replace ordinary meat in the human diet. It is actively eaten in the East, and there, as you know, junk food is not eaten. As the name implies, soy meat is produced from soy, more precisely from soy flour. It comes in the form of goulash, cereal, minced meat, etc., and also tastes like real meat. Soy contains many useful substances. Firstly, these are proteins, secondly, fatty acids, and thirdly, vitamins. Soy is no more harmful to the body than peas or beans. Soy meat dishes are indicated for various diseases and diets. However, when we talk about the benefits of soybeans, it should be understood that we are talking about a natural product, not a genetically modified one.
So, the naturalness of the product is the main thing that you should pay attention to when choosing soy meat. The recipes of dishes from it are almost as varied and numerous as from natural meat.
