Spinach and tofu cannot be eaten together--after decades of publicity, this sentence has become a household name and an iron rule deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. However, based on the research results in recent years, it can be concluded that spinach and tofu are not only a good combination of a special delicious spinach tofu picture (19 photos), but also a perfect match for calcium supplementation and bone strengthening. In the past, it was believed that spinach should not be eaten with tofu for only one reason: spinach contains a large amount of oxalic acid, which will combine with calcium to form an insoluble precipitate. However, this statement fails to see another aspect of the problem-spinach also contains a variety of factors that promote calcium utilization and reduce calcium excretion, including rich potassium and magnesium, as well as vitamin K. People all know that calcium is closely related to acid-base balance. When excessive intake of protein foods, the acid-base balance will be unbalanced and the body's calcium excretion will increase. At this time, if you can eat more green leafy vegetables, such as spinach, you can fully absorb potassium and magnesium to help maintain acid-base balance and reduce the amount of calcium excreted, which is very beneficial to bone health. 100 grams of spinach contains 311 mg of potassium and 58 mg of magnesium, ranking among the best among vegetables, 2.7 times the potassium content of Fuji apples and 11.6 times the magnesium content of Fuji apples. With the rich potassium and magnesium in spinach, the calcium in tofu can be better retained in the human body. What's more worth mentioning is that vitamin K in spinach has a powerful effect on promoting the formation of bone calcium. Vitamin K is one of the research hotspots in nutrition in recent years. It is an essential component for the formation of "osteocalcin". Vitamin K is mainly found in green leafy vegetables and vegetable oils, while spinach is one of the vegetables with the highest content, second only to kale, with a content of 415 micrograms/100 grams. Survey data show that middle-aged and elderly women consume more than 109 micrograms of vitamin K per day, which can reduce the risk of fracture by 30%. Studies have also shown that supplementing 200 micrograms of vitamin K every day has the effect of maintaining and improving bone density. In other words, you can achieve this effect by eating less than 100 grams of spinach per day. Studies have shown that if vitamin K is added while supplementing calcium, it can greatly improve the effect of calcium supplementation and promote calcium deposition into bones. Pictures of spinach tofu rich in different methods of making (12 photos) Tofu with calcium and protein, coupled with spinach rich in potassium, magnesium and vitamin K, is a perfect match for calcium and bone strengthening. So, what about oxalic acid in spinach? Since oxalic acid is very soluble in water, more than 80% of the oxalic acid can be removed by simply blanching the spinach in boiling water for 1 minute. First stir-fry tofu, then add blanched spinach, mix it together and eat it without any problem. Fortunately, vitamin K is not afraid of heat and does not dissolve in water, so blanching spinach will not cause its loss. However, vitamin K, like carotene, requires oil to help absorb, so when making spinach and tofu soup, you must remember to add some oil.
