Soybean Milk
Description
Soybean milk is a milk-like liquid made from soybeans, the seed of the leguminous bushes, Glycine soya, Glycine hispida, or Glycine max. This milk substitute is rich in iron, thiamine, and niacin, but is a poor source of calcium, phosphorus, and riboflavin. Accordingly, it is not a completely satisfactory substitute for cow's whole milk.
