Soybean is a type of legume, an important component in Asian diets and have been consumed for thousands of years. In Asia, they are often eaten whole, but in Western countries soybeans are heavily processed into soy products. Nevertheless, it is crucially advisable to consume soybeans in whole food forms, and also consider giving preference to fermented versions like tempeh, fermented tofu, and soy miso.
Dried soybeans can actually be found in a variety of colors including black, brown, and blue. Fresh (undried) soybeans, however, are always green in color.
Soybeans are mainly composed of water, protein and good amount of carbohydrate and fat. Rich in antioxidants and phytonutrients, soybeans have been linked with various health benefits.
