Soybean is considered to be the best source of protein but we must understand that the quality of protein is too poor. Even though the quantity of protein in soybean is 36gms per 100gms as compared to dals which is around 21gms per 100gms, both the foods (soybean and dals) are poor quality proteins (Incomplete proteins). One must consume complete proteins which is derived from animal sources like milk and milk products- cheese, paneer or curd, whole eggs, chicken or fish to meet the optimal protein requirement. In case, one is lactose intolerant, then have more of curd or paneer instead of soya milk. In some cases, it interferes with thyroid hormone productions and causes imbalance of hormones in men. Soy would be best recommended for menopause because it provide estrogen and suppresses the symptoms but to meet the protein requirement, soy is should be the last option.

The best would be to add vitamin C supplement for 1000mg per day because our diets do not match the levels we need to match up to. Ones, who are generally low on iron levels then, correct your vitamin C intake and see the difference.
