Researchers studied soybeans to determine why they may have the ability to lower cholesterol. The scientists studied different levels of two soybean proteins—glycinin and beta-conglycinin.They noted soybeans with increased levels of beta-conglycinin compared to glycinin were better able to regulate cholesterol metabolism and inhibit fatty acid oxidation.
