Getting your protein
05/09/2011 | Channel: Health, Drinks
With the humble soy bean at its heart, Lifegain is a new kind of nutritional drink that aims to remove the hassle from supplement shopping by providing everything your body needs without the fuss – a true ‘lifestyle supplement’.
Whilst the vanilla flavoured drink provides a whole host of important nutrients, including essential and non-essential amino acids, calcium, iron, zinc, phosphorus, magnesium, a range of vitamins, fatty acids and fibre, it is its unique soy content that makes it really stand out from the crowd.
Soy, in combination with whey and milk protein isolates, offers a powerful protein source, but it is so much more than that. Its jam packed full of substances called isoflavones, which have been seen to have a large range of benefits.
Just one serving of Lifegain contains 66mg of Isoflavones. These miracle molecules are well known for helping with osteoporosis and promoting a healthy circulatory system, and just 25g of Soy Protein a day (40-90mg isoflavones) can help control blood cholesterol and therefore promote a healthy heart.
Another unique property of soy is its ability to help balance out hormone levels and it is often used to help with symptoms during the menopause.

Very easy to make, with handy portion sized packs, and made with water, the drink is very sweet and the intense vanilla taste comes straight through. For anyone looking to incorporate soy into his or her diet, this drink makes it easy.
