Adding Soy-Free Vegan Options

In Episode #9, we take a request from a fan (Hi Karen) and discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly about soy. We also give you a helpful list of soy-free vegan options. Of course, we are not doctors so please do your own research.

All About Soy

First, we take a dive into what soy is, what forms it comes in, and how to create a healthy relationship with soy. For some people, a health condition or an allergy may require the elimination of soy from their diet. Others may just want to have a good balance in their meals and want to lower their intake of soy. In either case, this episode is for you because we are going to cover some great soy-free vegan options!

Soy-Free Vegan Options

We spend a good part of this episode discussing soy-free vegan protein alternatives. This is a major part of the soy discussion because soy products are used quite frequently in vegan food. From pea protein to Beyond Meat, we talk about quite a thorough list of protein options that do not include soy. These choices will keep your meals interesting and delicious without adding soy to your diet.

We also discuss soy-free, non-dairy products to fill your fridge! And we even give you meal ideas! Hopefully this episode gives those you struggling to find soy-free vegan options a little bit of guidance.
