En los adultos, el consumo de 25 gramos de proteína de soya al día puede reducir el riesgo de enfermedad cardíaca.
Los alimentos de soya y las leches maternizadas a base de soya se utilizan ampliamente con los niños, pero no hay estudios que hayan mostrado si los aislados de proteína de soya o los suplementos de isoflavonas son útiles o seguros en esta población. Por lo tanto, los productos a base de aislado de soya no se recomiendan para ser utilizados con niños en este momento.
