It aids in our digestive health maintenance and can be molded into various shapes in daily dishes. Soy consumption daily is good for hair and skin health. Soybean is high in amino acids and is especially advantageous to people who have lactose intolerance. These factors are likely to propel the growth of the market shortly.
