For those on the bandwagon of Whey protein here's an interesting article on Soy.

Please read before replying negatively. I just wanted to post the "other side of the story."

    While whey still seems to be the protein of choice immediately post workout because of it's quick absorbtion into the bloodstream, I believe that you should get your protein from a variety of sources, including beef, poultry, eggs, dairy, and yes, soy. The only arguement that I could possibly make against soy is that it tastes like crap (my opinion) and I find it doesn't mix well in shakes or smoothies. But as a quality source of protein, there's nothing wrong with it.
