Nutrition Nugget: The Whey We Were

One of my favorite nutrition and exercise websites, Suppversity, recently posted their analysis of a recent study by the Teheran University of Medical Sciences ( Tahavorgar, 2014) on soy versus whey protein.

The study was well- designed and administered. The study examined the effects of preloads of whey and soy protein on appetite, caloric intake, and body composition of "healthy" overweight and obese men.

For my vegan friends who went vegan to reduce bodyfat rather than for ethical reasons: some bad news. 60 grams of pre-meal whey protein versus soy protein resulted in ( long-term of 12 weeks) a 9% greater decrease in body fat and 18%greater increase in lean body mass.
