By Mike Green

Soya milk, or soymilk, is a beverage which is made from Soya beans by soaking them in water and then grinding them to form a stable emulsion. The credit of having discovered this nourishing drink goes to the Chinese who had even mastered the process of converting Soya milk into tofu or bean curd.

This has furthermore resulted in commercial packaging and distribution in a range of flavors around the world.

In its natural form, Soya milk is unsweetened in saying that some of its products can be sweetened for commercial purposes. The most common commercial varieties of Soya milk are chocolate-flavored and vanilla-flavored Soya milk, bean curd or tofu and sweetened Soya milk apart from the salty Soya milk which is used only in China.

The colossal esteem of Soya milk stems from the fact that since it obtained from a plant source, it is an ideal beverage for vegetarian consumption. In addition this milk is an excellent substitute for such individuals who are prohibited against consuming cow's milk owing to allergies, intolerance and further medical reasons. It is by reason of these reasons that Soya milk has effectively replaced the traditional cow's milk in numerous households and establishments.

Soya milk is considered to be an ideal substitute for cow's milk because its nutritional value is extraordinarily similar to that of cow's milk. While cow's milk is a natural source of animal proteins over and above calcium, the protein present in Soya milk is a vegetable protein whereas the calcium is frequently added during the commercial production.

Apart from these differences, Soya milk is a rich source of vitamin E, lecithin and isoflavones due to which it protects the cells of the body from oxidation, prevents the onset of osteoporosis and provides immunity against breast cancer. In addition, Soya milk contains fatty acids in very little amounts due to which the user is protected against high cholesterol levels.
