Define isolated soybean proteins in Infant formulas?
Infant formulas, where milk solids have been replaced by soy products, are well established commercial products. ISP is the preferred soy ingredient, because of its blandness, absence of flatus-producing sugars and negligible fibre content. The principal market for these products is lactose-intolerant babies. However, soy protein based dietetic formulas are finding increasing use in geriatric and post-operative feeding as well as in weight reduction programs.
