Cholesterol free
Just imagine, delicious products that won’t send your cholesterol spiralling. Welcome to soya! You can eat the Belsoy products to your heart’s content and never have to worry about your cholesterol levels. What could be better?
Low in saturated fat
A healthy diet is a diet that is low in saturated fat. This “bad” fat can increase our cholesterol levels. Belsoy products are naturally low in saturated fat.
Naturally contains Omega 3 & 6
The Belsoy products contain Omega 3 & 6 polyunsaturated fats that the body needs as it grows and ages. Polyunsaturated fats are also known as the « good » fats, as they keep us healthy. Omega 3 & 6 fats are essential to keep our body working properly.
Rich in high-quality protein
The quality of soya protein is equivalent to that of protein obtained from milk or products of animal origin. In fact, soya protein contains the 8 essential amino acids that our body is incapable of producing itself, which is why it has to extract them from our food. That is why soya drinks are the only real plant alternative to cow’s milk.
Rich in calcium and vitamins
Most of the Belsoy products are enriched with calcium and have the same quantity of calcium as cow’s milk. They also contain vitamin B2 and vitamin B12. These products are an excellent alternative to dairy products.
Easy to digest
Thanks to the natural production process, certain carbohydrates that are difficult to digest are almost totally eliminated. The Belsoy products are therefore very easy to digest.
Naturally healthy
In order to preserve to a maximum the natural nutritional goodness of the soya bean, we have developed a unique production process. This helps to naturally transform the entire soya bean into tasty products. Enjoy the Belsoy products and the benefits of soya!
No artificial preservatives, colours or sweeteners
We want to offer healthy and natural products. That is why we do no use any artificial preservatives, colours or flavours. Savour and enjoy the healthy taste of untouched nature!
Dairy and lactose free
The Belsoy products are 100% vegetable in origin. They therefore contain no lactose or dairy proteins.
Naturally contains fibre
Soya beans contain soluble fibres. The Belsoy products are therefore a natural source of fibres.
Very low salt content
A healthy diet contains as little salt as possible. That is why the Belsoy products only have a minimum salt content.
Naturally contains isoflavones
Soya beans naturally contain isoflavones, compounds that help to keep you healthy.
Actively lowers cholesterol
As part of a balanced and varied diet, with a limited intake of saturated fats and cholesterol, soya proteins can help lower blood cholesterol. Scientific studies have proven that the inclusion of 25g of soya protein per day can lead to a reduction in cholesterol levels (a fact that is confirmed by the Joint Health Claim Initiative [United Kingdom 2002] / the American Food and Drug Administration 1999).
Soya and obesity
A healthy lifestyle is essential to fight against obesity. Be active and watch what you eat. Start off by including soya in your diet!
Soya for children
Belsoy products for healthy growth
Up until the age of 1, infants have special dietary requirements.
From the age of 6 months, all the Belsoy products can be given as a snack, because they also contain several nutrients that are necessary for healthy and balanced growth:
- quality soya protein
- Omega 6 and Omega 3 essential fats
- calcium
Allergy to dairy protein
An allergy to dairy protein is the most common food allergy found in children. Even the smallest quantities of dairy protein can trigger allergic reactions. You can be sure of one thing : the Belsoy products contain no trace of dairy protein.
