Is it really necessary to add amino acids to soy, according to what Peter Stace writes about it in: 
http://www.honeybee.com.au/Library/pollen/Soybean.html

Here in Europe we are taught that the sugars stachyose and raffinose in soy are harmful to bees. 
But since those sugars are found in some pollen types, the question is whether it is true.
