2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp ground chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin

IPP Certified Non-GMO Soy Protein and Organic Soybean Powder combine with an excellent balance of complex and simple carbohydrates for time released energy and Essential Fatty Acids from highly monounsaturated sunflower. Soya-Rice is equivalent to 1% Low Fat milk in total fat, but slightly less than Nonfat milk in saturated fat. Soya-Rice contains no hydrogenated ingredients or Trans-Fatty Acids. We have added 200mg of Soluble Rice Fiber per serving. One of the single healthiest foods on the planet, Brown Rice Fiber is the most nutritious part of rice containing an amazing assortment of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Rice fiber is rarely included in the typical American diet.
Sammi's Best Soya-Rice provides and maintains live probiotic cultures in a milk-free diet. Lactobacillus Acidophilus and Bifidus Cultures have been added in significant quantity without needing milk sugar or lactose in the diet to support them. Friendly bacteria are so beneficial to overall health and disease prevention. They provide a number of health-promoting therapeutic functions and are severely lacking in the usual diet of fast, over-processed foods and widespread use of antibiotics. Now in a lactose-free product that can be economically enjoyed every day, you can obtain concentrated yogurt cultures without needing milk products to feed them. Studies have proven that one of our complex oligosaccharides make an excellent substitute for lactose and provide an excellent environment for probiotic (pro-Life) cultures to propagate intestinal flora and thrive in the digestive system. 8 More
8 What is Evaporated Cane Juice?


Cane juice still contains minerals, potassium, calcium and Iron. Our complex carbohydrates come from Maltodextrins, Oligodextrins, Brown Rice Syrup, Tapioca Food Starch, Chicory Root. Our milk alternatives are 60% complex to provide stable time released energy. In Sammi's Best Meal Replacement/Diet Shake we use Dextrose and Fructose as simple sugars. Dextrose (grape sugar) is the easiest form of sugar for the body to convert to Glucose and Fructose (fruit sugar) is sweeter per calorie and helps bridge the gap between simple and complex carbohydrates because it raises and lowers blood sugar at an equal rate without stimulating over production of insulin. Fructose allows you to use less total sugar because it is sweeter and reduces calories. Honey, for example is fructose and sucrose combined. Doctors recommend Sammi's Best carbohydrate package to many diabetics.
Brown Rice Syrup is a sweetener prepared by culturing rice with enzymes to break down the starches, straining off the liquid, and cooking it to the desired consistency. Brown rice syrup contains 50% soluble complex carbohydrates which take from two to three hours to be digested resulting in a steady supply of energy. This syrup is evaporated to form rice syrup solids.
Everything you cook is processed. Herbs, extracts, dried fruit, fruit juice and breads are all processed, refined or modified in some way. The question we ask is; is there anything in the processing procedure that would make the end product unhealthy? Some things are over- processed and unnaturally refined to the point of losing nutritional value or having unhealthy residuals. 8 More
8 Soy to Beat Breast Cancer
One more piece of evidence hailing the health benefits of soy joined the already considerable volume this week when scientists suggested that consuming tofu and other soy-based foods can significantly lower levels of a class of oestrogens normally associated with breast cancer risk in post- menopausal women.
According to a new study carried out by researchers at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California, researchers found a link between soy-rich diets consumed by Asian women in Singapore and reduced levels of an oestrogen called estrone, the predominant form of oestrogen in women following menopause. High oestrogen levels have been shown to increase the risk for breast cancer among postmenopausal women.
The results of the study found that estrone levels were a massive 15 per cent lower among women who consumed the highest amounts of soy protein.
"Results from this study support the hypothesis that high soy intake may reduce the risk of breast cancer by lowering endogenous oestrogen levels, particularly estrone," said Anna H. Wu, the study's lead investigator and professor of preventive medicine at Keck School of Medicine 8 More
