Shopping tips can be applied to people.

First, how to buy

The quality of yuba is divided into three grades, and the lighter the color, the higher the nutritional value. However, be careful when buying. Some yuba, which looks particularly bright in color, may be added with a chemical substance "hanging white block" in the production process, which can decompose toxic substances such as formaldehyde and sulfur dioxide, which is harmful to human health.

Second, the applicable population

Although yuba has high nutritional value, some people, such as nephritis and renal insufficiency, had better eat less, otherwise it will cause the increase of non-protein nitrogen in the blood and aggravate the condition. Patients with diabetic acidosis and gout, or those who are taking tetracycline, hypoglycemic and other drugs, should also be cautious.
