The nutritional and sensory evaluation of 12 plant beverages is presented on the base of test of the Federation of the Food and Drink Industries of the Czech Republic. The results of analysis of fatty acids composition of dry soya beverages in the laboratory of the Institute of Food Analysis and Nutrition of the UCT in Prague are presented as well.
