Expert Tips

tip 1
Soy foods such as edamame contain soy protein and isoflavones, two components with promise in helping to reduce heart disease risk.
tip 2
Edamame are green or unripened soybeans. You’ll find packages of frozen in-the-pod or shelled edamame in the frozen foods section, or fresh in the produce section with other Asian vegetables.
