Soybean is rich in isoflavones, which can cut off the nutritional supply of cancer cells, contains 8 kinds of amino acids, multivitamins and various trace elements, which can reduce blood cholesterol, prevent high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis, and beauty. The major health benefits of soy foods are:

1. Lower blood lipids

Plant sterols in soybeans have the effect of lowering blood cholesterol. It competes with cholesterol in the intestines and reduces cholesterol absorption.

A study published online April 22, 2019, by The Journal of Nutrition: 'Researchers examined 43 trials to evaluate the effect soy had on LDL levels. (High LDL levels can lead to a buildup of cholesterol in arteries and increase a person's risk of cardiovascular disease.) They found that, on average, eating 25 grams of soy protein per day, over a six-week period, lowered LDL levels by about 3% to 4%, which is a small but still significant amount.

Soy is used to make many food products, such as tofu, soy milk, and veggie burgers and other meat substitutes, as well as a protein powder for smoothies. About 3½ cups of soy milk or a large scoop of soy protein powder equals 25 grams of soy protein'.

5. Improve energy

Protein in soy can increase the excitatory and inhibitory functions of the cerebral cortex, improve learning and work efficiency, and help relieve depression and depression.

6. Whitening skin care

Soybeans are rich in soy isoflavones, a phytoestrogens that improve skin aging and relieve menopausal symptoms. In addition, Japanese researchers have found that linoleic acid contained in soybeans can effectively prevent the synthesis of melanin in skin cells.

7. Prevent cancer

Soy contains protease inhibitor, which inhibits a variety of cancers and has the most pronounced inhibitory effect on reduce breast cancer.

8. Auxiliary buck

In the diet of hypertensive patients, the intake of sodium is too much, and the potassium is too small. Ingestion of high-potassium foods can promote excessive sodium excretion in the body and have the effect of assisting blood pressure reduction. Soybeans are rich in potassium, and the potassium content per 100 grams of soybeans is as high as 1503 mg. Hypertensive patients often eat soybeans, which is helpful for timely supplementation of potassium in the body.
