Soymilk is a popular beverage in many countries, especially in Asian countries (Ono, 2008). It is rich in proteins, iron, unsaturated fatty acids, and niacin, but low in fat, carbohydrates, and calcium (Zhao et al., 2018). The soymilk benefits people who are lactose-intolerant or live in the regions where the supply of animal milk is inadequate. In addition, soymilk also contains some functional components such as Kunitz trypsin inhibitor (KTI), Bowman-Birk inhibitor (BBI), phytic acid, and tannins. Kunitz and Bowman-Birk are the most studied inhibitor families and are found in abundance in various leguminous plants (Oliveira et al., 2012).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
