Soy

I do not know much about soy except that it contains a lot of protein. So for vegans or vegetarians soy can be a useful way of attaining proteins that they lack from not eating meat. After researching I have learned that soy can prevent various health issues including: high cholesterol, heart diseases, breast cancer, and prostate cancer. The common misconception about soy is that these health preventions are not applicable in all soy products. Only products containing whole soy will prevent the health issues listed above.
