Hi Dear
Welcome to the board of Health care Magic.
Soyabean is a good source of protein, hence it should help in gaining weight provided you are giving it in a suffecient quantity.
I do not think much negative about giving soyabean to children.Every article in the net may not be authentic or accurate. You have to take the opinion from an practically sound experienced personnel.
So, Mm do not hesitate in giving soyabean to your child, but along with that food should be balanced enough to provide all the necessary composition like fat, carbohydrates, vitamins and micro nutrients.
Hope your query is answered
Thanks
