The food product obtained is very interesting from a nutritional
and human health perspective because of the combination of
particularly beneficial vegetable nutrients. In this product, the
healthy properties of vegetable proteins and fat are combined with
an oligosaccharide such as inulin, which is, a natural prebiotic being
an alternative for special dietary problems as lactose intolerance,
diabetes and digestible problems. Furthermore, it has been
demonstrated that soy foods in conjunction with a prebiotic
resulted in significant improvements in the lipid profile (Wong
et al., 2010).
