Garlic - This recipe is quite garlic heavy, just the way we like it. If you don't love garlic as much as we do, then you can reduce the amount used or just leave it out completely. We crushed fresh garlic, but you could use frozen or garlic from a jar to save even more time. Armed with a good blender, you’re just seconds away from your meal.

However, more research is needed to confirm this ( 14). One review including 17 randomized control studies — the gold standard in research — suggests that soy isoflavones may help slightly reduce blood sugar and insulin levels in menopausal women ( 24). In another study, soy foods were found to offer some protection against the effects of bisphenol A (BPA), a compound found in some plastics believed to reduce fertility ( 30).
