1. Reduce the symptoms of female menopausal syndrome
Soy isoflavones is a structure similar to estrogen, with estrogenic activity of phytoestrogens, delaying the aging of women's cells, so that the skin maintains its elasticity, nourish the face, reduce bone loss, promote bone production, lowering blood lipids and so on.
2. Prevent vascular sclerosis
Prevent vascular sclerosis, prevent cardiovascular disease, protect the heart, soybean lecithin also has the role of preventing the liver from accumulating excessive fat, thus effectively preventing and treating fatty liver caused by obesity.
3. Let the mind smart
In the usual moderate amount of soybean, but also can effectively achieve the effect of prevention of Alzheimer's disease. And in the soybean also contains a substance called sterol, it can effectively increase nerve function, thus promoting its vitality effect.
4. sugar, lipid
Soybean contains a substance that inhibits pancreatic enzymes, which has a therapeutic effect on diabetes. Soybean saponins contained in the obvious hypolipidemic effect, at the same time, can inhibit weight gain.
6. whitening skin care
Can effectively improve skin aging, but also has the effect of alleviating menopausal syndrome. At the same time after the Japanese researchers experiments found that the linoleic acid contained in soybean can effectively prevent the synthesis of melanin in the skin cells.
7. Cancer prevention
Preventing the occurrence of cancer has the effect of different cancers it has a certain inhibitory effect. Especially for breast cancer, its inhibitory effect is the most obvious.
8. Reduce blood lipids
The plant sterols in soybean also have the effect of lowering blood cholesterol, after entering the intestine can compete with cholesterol, thus reducing cholesterol absorption. However, while lowering the "bad cholesterol" in the blood, it does not affect the "good cholesterol" in the blood.
9. Enhance the immune function
Soybeans are rich in protein and contain a variety of essential amino acids, which can improve the body's immunity.
The nutritional value of soybeans
1. Soybeans contain about 40% protein, in terms of quantity and quality can be compared with animal protein, 500 grams of soybeans protein content is equivalent to 1,500 grams of eggs, or 6,000 grams of milk, or 1,000 grams of lean pork, so soybeans have a "plant-based" and "green dairy cattle". "green dairy cattle" reputation.
2. Soy protein contains essential amino acids, especially rich in lysine, just to supplement the deficiency of lysine in cereals, and the lack of methionine in the soybean, can be supplemented by cereals.
3. Soybean fat content of 18-20%, accounting for the first in the beans, the oil rate of 20%. In addition, superior to animal fats is less cholesterol, and rich in linoleic acid and linoleic acid, such unsaturated fatty acids so that soy has a cholesterol-lowering effect; lecithin is also more, which is important for the development of the nervous system.
4. Containing potassium, sodium and other inorganic salts, some essential trace elements, isoflavones of soybean flavonoid glycosides (including goldfinch isoflavones), dyeing wood glycosides and soybean saponins. Dried soybeans do not contain vitamin C within, but after germination can produce vitamin C, in the vegetable off-season, can be supplemented to eat. In addition, soybean also contains vitamin A, B, D, E and calcium, phosphorus, iron and other minerals.
5. soybean processing of various soybean products, not only high protein content, and contains a variety of human body can not synthesize and essential amino acids, cholesterol content in the tofu protein digestibility as high as 95%, for the ideal complementary therapeutic products.
It should be noted that the raw soybean, containing anti-trypsin factor, affecting the body's absorption of nutrients within the soybean. Therefore, the consumption of soybeans and soy foods, cooking time should be longer than the general food to high temperature to destroy these factors, improve the nutritional value of soy protein.
