May help protect heart health

Consuming soy nuts may help reduce other heart disease risk factors and lower cholesterol levels. Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) in soy, fiber, and protein all likely play a part, though the precise process is yet unclear. Isoflavones, which are found in soy, work as antioxidants in your body and resemble estrogen.

Eating soy products substantially reduced LDL (bad) cholesterol levels while raising HDL (good) cholesterol levels, especially in people with high cholesterol levels, according to a study of 35 research. According to another research, soy nuts have a greater impact on cholesterol levels than other soy products. In addition, an 8-week trial involving 60 women found that soy nuts, which contain 25 grams of protein per serving, reduced systolic and diastolic blood pressure in people with high blood pressure by 9.9% and 6.8%, respectively, compared to a diet devoid of soy protein.
