More than 80 studies during the past three decades have indicated a beneficial connection between soy protein and reduced LDL (bad) cholesterol. In fact, this research is so compelling that the FDA has awarded certain foods containing soy protein the right to bear an official FDA Heart Health claim. This puts Silk^® in the good company of oatmeal and other wholesome foods recognized as heart-healthy staples.

The FDA asserts that 25 grams of soy protein per day, as part of a healthy diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, might reduce your risk of heart disease. Every serving of Silk Heart Health soymilk provides 6.25 grams of soy protein, as well as the added benefit of phytosterols—another proven heart-health ingredient.*

In addition to offering a specific cholesterol-lowering benefit, soy protein is also an all-around smart choice for heart health. Unlike many animal-protein sources, soy is very low in saturated fat and is 100% cholesterol-free.
