The body organs of infants and young children are not yet mature, and their food tolerance and digestion abilities are relatively poor compared to adults. Therefore, the food provided to infants and young children is different from the food for adults. Some mothers have questions about whether infants and young children can drink soy milk powder. Below, Mawang Encyclopedia will answer it for you.
Although soy milk powder is rich in protein and minerals, for infants and young children who drink too much soy milk powder, the incidence of reproductive system and thyroid diseases will increase when they grow up, because soy milk powder contains Isoflavones are substances that can affect thyroid and sexual function. Although this substance is tolerated by adults, it is not tolerated by infants and young children. In order to prevent infants and young children from getting sick, it is best for mothers not to let their infants and young children drink soy milk powder.
In addition, it is also worrying for infants and young children to drink soy milk powder for a long time. Compared with breast milk, the nutritional content of soy milk powder cannot meet the growth and development needs of infants and young children. However, the composition of milk powder is closer to breast milk and is the best substitute for breast milk. Mothers should let their babies drink milk powder at the right time, rather than letting them drink soy milk.
