Pro-Bites - Proteins "On The Go" - Dr. Steven L. Snodgrass, M.D. F.A.C.S

MUNCHING PRO-BITES™ COULD BE THE MOST IMPORTANT HEALTH CHOICE YOU MAKE.

Health Benefits of Soy

You already know that snacking on soy-based Pro-Bites™ can promote good cardiovascular and bone health. You also know it may help protect you from certain cancers. But the benefits of making Pro-Bites™ part of your daily health go much deeper.

Glycemic Index
The type of carbohydrate (sugars and starches) you eat affects glucose levels. The ability of a carbohydrate-containing food to raise glucose levels is reflected in its glycemic index (GI). Potatoes, rice and the white flours in breads and pastas have a very high glycemic index. On the contrary, soybeans have a very low glycemic index, meaning they have little effect on glucose levels.

Weight Management

Obesity has become a major concern to Americans. We don’t exercise enough and the types of calories we take in are not all equal in their energy-burning capabilities. When met with an energy need, the body will go first to its stored carbohydrates. They are a quick energy source and the body readily converts them to energy. When those are used up, the body will turn fat and protein into usable energy. Now you can see that if you take in too many carbohydrates and lead a sedentary lifestyle, those fast burning carbohydrates get stored as fat. Replace the carbs and fats in your diet with ProBites™ and make other healthy choices and you will lose the extra pounds and keep them off.

Antioxidant Function of Soy

Oxidation is a chemical reaction that damages cells and tissues in the body, contributing to the process underlying most heart disease and stroke. Oxidation also plays a role in the cell damage that initiates cancer. Laboratory research has shown that a major component in soy is a potent antioxidant, meaning that it limits or prevents oxidation.
