Soy milk is a white, milky emulsion made by soaking, grinding, filtering, and boiling clean, impurity-free soybeans. It is a primary soy product made from processed soybeans, also known as an intermediate product, with the unique flavor of soybeans. How can you drink soy milk to enhance its health benefits?
Soy milk is a highly nutritious daily beverage whose nutritional value is comparable to milk, earning it the nickname "green milk." Soy milk is rich in special health-promoting factors such as soy saponins, isoflavones, and lecithin, giving it a variety of health benefits;
Fresh soy milk is suitable for drinking in all seasons. It is also rich in high-quality protein, with a content of up to 4%. Soy milk is also rich in minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, and iron, with an iron content 10-20 times that of milk;
Soy milk does not contain cholesterol or lactose. Milk contains lactose, which must be broken down by the enzyme lactase to be absorbed by the human body. However, most people in China lack lactase, which is the main reason why many people experience diarrhea after drinking milk.
