Default Soymilk

I was just curious as to the health benefits to drinking soymilk. Is it nutritionally healthier then cow's milk? Does it taste good? I don't drink cow's milk (never liked it) and don't really like alot of dairy products except for lowfat cheese and an occasional yogurt every now and then. I've always hated the taste of really rich and creamy cow based products.

I also dislike cow milk but I love soy milk. My dietician encouraged me to drink it because I do not like milk. Vanilla is my favorite and the lowfat tastes just as good to me as the regular.

If you purchase soy milk from the store, it has been "bleached" because the natural color of soy milk is a light creme color. Soy milk is not milk but a "bean drink" made by simmering soybeans in a pot of water. A lot of the nutritional value depends on what minerals and vitamins get transferred into milk instead of in the "mesh" called okara.
