However, while you're happily sipping on soy milk, you might be ignoring some special substances it contains. Therefore, nutrition experts suggest: although soy milk is good, it's not suitable for everyone. Be sure to pay attention to the following precautions when drinking to make your soy milk more nutritious and delicious.
7 Taboos of Drinking Soy Milk
1. Avoid drinking uncooked soy milk: Many people like to buy raw soy milk and heat it at home. When they see foam rising during heating, they mistakenly think it has boiled. In fact, this is just a phenomenon caused by the expansion of organic substances in the soy milk, forming bubbles, not boiling. Uncooked soy milk is harmful to the human body. Because soy milk contains two toxic substances that can cause protein metabolism disorders and irritate the gastrointestinal tract, leading to poisoning symptoms. The way to prevent soy milk poisoning is to boil it at a high temperature of 100°C, and then you can drink it with peace of mind. If you experience symptoms such as headache or difficulty breathing after drinking soy milk, you should seek medical attention immediately, as any delay could be life-threatening.
2. Avoid adding eggs to soy milk: Many people like to crack an egg into their soy milk, thinking it's more nutritious, but this method is unscientific. This is because the mucoprotein in eggs easily combines with trypsin in soy milk, producing a substance that cannot be absorbed by the human body, greatly reducing the body's absorption of nutrients.
3. Avoid mixing with brown sugar: Adding brown sugar to soy milk makes it sweet and fragrant, but the organic acids in brown sugar can combine with the protein in soy milk to produce denatured precipitates, which greatly destroys the nutritional value.
4. Avoid storing in a thermos: Soy milk contains substances that can remove scale from a thermos. Under suitable temperature conditions, bacteria in the bottle will multiply rapidly with the soy milk as a nutrient source, and the soy milk can become sour and spoiled after 3-4 hours.
5. Avoid drinking in excess: Drinking too much soy milk at once can easily lead to indigestion of protein, causing discomfort symptoms such as bloating and diarrhea.
6. Avoid drinking on an empty stomach: Most of the protein in soy milk is converted into calories and consumed by the body, so it cannot fully provide nourishment. Eating some starchy foods like bread, pastries, or steamed buns while drinking soy milk can allow the protein and other nutrients in the soy milk to undergo enzymatic hydrolysis more fully with the action of starch, ensuring that the nutrients are fully absorbed.
7. Avoid drinking with medication: Some medications can destroy the nutritional components of soy milk, such as tetracycline and erythromycin and other antibiotic drugs.
