IDENTIFICATION
SOY PROTEIN ISOLATE is a pure form of soy protein that is refined from soy flour through alkali extraction, extraction of fiber and drying. Almost completely free of carbohydrates and fats, it contains approximately 90 percent protein. It has a neutral flavor and, because of bacterial fermentation, is less likely to cause flatulence than other forms of soy protein.

Function
Similar to Whey Protein isolate, soy protein isolate contains high levels of branched chain amino acids -- or BCAAs -- which are the first amino acids that are metabolized during exercise. Soy protein isolate also contains high levels of leucine, an essential amino acid that stimulates protein synthesis and improves muscle repair and growth. Because it contains almost no carbohydrates and fat, it slows down glucose absorption in the blood, lowers insulin levels and helps your body burn fat. Researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences say soy protein isolate may also help protect against certain types of cancer, according to a study published in April 2005 in the "Journal of the American College of Nutrition."
Consideration
Because the refinement process used in its production frequently involves an ethanol wash, soy protein isolate may lack certain nutrients found in unprocessed soy, particularly isoflavones. Isoflavones are thought to aid in bone growth and strength and to reduce arterial stiffness, according to the Linus Pauling Institute.
