the future by identifying trends, patterns and business drives
within the data to develop a forecast. This forecast is referred to
as a statistical forecast because it uses mathematical formulas
to identify the patterns and trends while testing the results for
mathematical reasonableness and confidence. Statistical
forecasting is used for forecasting sales and budget.

Soy- and rice- based diets are very popular in Third World
countries. The soy bean has a higher phytate content than any
other grain or legume that has been studied. Phytate is an
organic acid, present in the bran or hulls of all seeds, which
blocks the uptake of essential minerals - calcium, magnesium,
iron and especially zinc - in the intestinal tract.
Soy beans seem to be highly resistant to many phytate-
reducing techniques such as long, slow cooking. Only a long
period of fermentation will significantly reduce the phytate
content of soy beans. Thus, fermented products such as
tempeh and miso provide nourishment that is easily
assimilated. When precipitated soy products are consumed
with meat, the mineral-blocking effects of the phytates are
reduced.
