Yes, soya chunks are excellent for protein, especially if you are vegetarian. Just don't eat them daily, twice a week is perfectly fine.

Ho na, soya chunks are very healthy. I used to make soya biryani during my second trimester, it is a great way to get some protein.

Soya chunks are high in protein and completely safe in moderate quantities. Just balance it with other lentils and veggies in your diet.

My hospital nutritionist added soya chunks to my diet plan for protein. It's best to ask your doctor or hospital dietitian about the portion size suitable for you.

I am in my 2nd trimester and love soya chunks, but I read somewhere that soy has estrogen. Is it really safe to eat regularly?

Arya Mehta · Answer

I was extremely cautious about everything I ate. I only had a very small amount of soya chunks after checking with my doctor first, just to be safe.
