Soya health benefits from Walter Bread

The saying "big presents come from small packages" can never be truer than in the case of soya. These small innocently looking beans can provide the body with seemingly endless health benefits.

Research over the past 10 years has shown that an ample intake of soya in the diet can prevent osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases, cancer and post-menopausal syndromes.

Because of its numerous health benefits, soya is one of the main ingredients of Walter Bread’s newest bread – Walter Wheat n’ Soy Bread for Women.

Soya contains isoflavones, which are associated with the prevention of osteoporosis.

Soy isoflavones exert their beneficial effects on bones through different mechanisms, including building bone mass, suppressing bone turnover and enhancement of calcium absorption.

Cardiovascular diseases can also be prevented with the help of isoflavones.

Improved vascular function, reduction of blood pressure, antioxidant protection of LDL cholesterol and inhibition of platelet activation are other known cardiovascular effects of soya and its constituent isoflavones.

Aside from soya, Walter Wheat n’ Soy Bread for Women also contains natural seaweeds which are excellent sources of calcium and 72 trace minerals essential in maintaining a healthy electrolytic balance in the body system.

Furthermore, each slice of bread is packed with fiber which has been proven to increase calcium and mineral absorption in the body.

Walter Wheat n’ Soy Bread for Women is another product of Bakers Inc., maker of Walter Bread Sugar Free Wheat Pandesal, Sugar Free Wheat Bread and Double Fiber Wheat Bread. All products are available in all leading supermarkets nationwide.
