Edamame Soya Beans

Edamame is a versatile bean, that can be used in salads, stir-fries, and as a snack. Edamame is rich in iron, magnesium, potassium, calcium, zinc, and phosphorus. The isoflavones in edamame may help protect against bone loss, particularly in postmenopausal women. Some studies suggest that soy isoflavones may have protective effects against certain types of cancer, such as breast and prostate cancer although more research is still needed.
