Benefits of children drinking soybean milk: (1) Soybean milk is suitable for obese babies to eat soybean milk instead of milk, which is healthier for obese babies than drinking milk, because the glycemic index of soybean is 15%, while that of milk is 30%. But if it is a growing baby, the demand for fat is still great. It is not recommended to use soy milk instead of milk for babies. It is best to drink both milk and soybean milk. (2) Soymilk is suitable for babies who are allergic to lactose. Milk contains lactose. Among Asian yellow race people, 70% do not absorb lactose, while soybean milk contains oligosaccharides, of which 100% is absorbed by human body. (3) Soymilk can enhance the baby's resistance. Soybean milk is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, soybean saponins, lecithin and other dozens of substances beneficial to human body. These substances have the function of enhancing the baby's immunity. In addition, soybean milk also contains five kinds of anticancer substances.
2, the disadvantages of children drinking soy milk: babies who drink too much soy milk are prone to breast cancer, and babies who grow up eating soy milk will increase the risk of thyroid and reproductive system diseases in adulthood. Because infants react differently to high levels of phytoestrogens in soybeans than adults, only 5% of phytoestrogens ingested in the body can bind to estrogen receptors, and the rest will accumulate in the body. This may lay a hidden danger for future sexual development and increase the risk of breast cancer by 2-3 times. Secondly, the manganese content in soy milk and soy milk substitutes is 50 times higher than that in breast milk. Excessive manganese will affect the brain development of infants under 6 months, thus increasing the possibility of suffering from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in the future.
