The Chinese have been using soya; an excellent source of protein and nutritional benefits for thousands of years. Thousands of varieties exist, the most common being the one that gives us yellow soya beans. They take between 150 and 200 days to develop in hot and humid climates. The plant itself reaches about 80 centimetres in height, has small white or purple flowers that create pods that yield between 1 and 4 beans. Soya is grown in many parts of the world. But Alpro sources it mainly in Canada, China and Brazil but not in the Rainforest.

The almost spherical beans are the source of all soya’s wholesomeness – and the basis of all Alpro soya products. They are rich in healthy proteins, fibres, oil and minerals.

In fact, all the essential elements you need for a healthy diet.
