Soy protein stands out nutritionally in the plant protein world. It is recognized as a complete and high-quality protein, consistently achieving a Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS) of approximately 1.0.† This is attributed to its prime balance of all nine essential amino acids and high digestibility. The result—soy protein simplifies the development of nutrition claims for food and beverage manufacturers versus other plant proteins.‡
