Soy Milk Concentrate

Soy milk concentrate is made by removing water from soy milk. This process intensifies the soy flavor and protein content. It is a concentrated form of soy milk, often used as a base for other soy-based products.

Manufacturers add soy milk concentrate to boost the protein content and provide a creamy texture in products like beverages, yogurts, and desserts. It can also act as a binder or emulsifier, helping to combine ingredients that don't normally mix well. It is frequently found in plant-based milk alternatives and protein shakes.

Soy milk concentrate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. Soy is a common food allergen, and concentrated forms may contain higher levels of soy protein. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated soy and soy-derived products. While soy is a source of isoflavones, which have been studied for various health effects, research is ongoing and evidence is mixed regarding specific benefits or risks at typical dietary intakes.
