I've heard this, but I've also heard it's a relatively low-quality protein that's lacking some of the amino acids you need for overall health, so you wouldn't want to rely on it as your sole protein source. (Haven't read anything scientific on it, so what I'm saying is really just me speculating.)
Ultimately, it's a protein supplement. I'd be more inclined to do something like whey protein powder, myself.
