Do all soy-based foods qualify for the health claim?
A wide variety of soy-based foods will qualify for the health claim. In addition, food manufacturers are developing new foods to meet increasing demand for products containing soy. However, not all soy-based foods qualify since not all soy products contain the 6.25 grams of soy protein per serving or meet the fat, cholesterol or sodium requirements needed to meet the claim’s specifications. Products containing isolated soy protein, however, make it easier for consumers to get the recommended 25 grams of soy protein in the proposed four servings per day.
