Introduction: The health care function of tofu has been documented in many Chinese medicine books, but Xiao Bian recently saw many slimming recipes for tofu on the Internet, such as: four magic tofu slimming recipes and the like, and more sisters strictly follow the diet recipes Eating, this makes Xiao Bian feel very dangerous, to edit this article, hoping to give everyone a hint: Although tofu is good, can not be greedy!

Let's first understand where tofu is good:

Tofu, sweet and cool, with Qi and the role of detoxification in Sheng Jin. Modern scientific research shows that 40% of the nutrients in tofu are proteins, 25% are carbohydrates, 20% are oils, and polyunsaturated fatty acids are as high as 61%, plus various minerals, vitamins, and nutrients are not Lose meat and cholesterol.

Advantages: Tofu is - "anti-cancer star"

While acknowledging the nutritional value of tofu, we must also be alert to the harm caused by excessive consumption of the body. Tofu, but a "double-sided faction" Oh. Tofu's "first face" - "anti-cancer star." In the past 10 years, many studies have found that Asians suffer from breast cancer and oxidants.

The concentration of lecithin in the brain tissue of patients with dementia has declined.

Therefore, it is speculated that Alzheimer's disease may be related to the lack of lecithin. One of the best sources of lecithin is soy.

There are still too many advantages about tofu, so we won't go into details here. Let's take a look at the shortcomings of improper tofu:

Disadvantages: Partial eclipse tofu causes light gout, kidney disease

Tofu's "second face" - excessive consumption is detrimental to health. Although tofu is good, overdose can also be harmful to health. In the elderly, as well as patients with kidney disease and gout, it is necessary to control the amount of food consumed.

Chinese medicine believes that tofu is cold, cold stomach and easy diarrhea and other symptoms. Under normal circumstances, people's intake of plant proteins undergoes metabolic changes, and most of them become nitrogenous wastes and are excreted by the kidneys.

When people reach the old age, the ability of the kidneys to excrete waste decreases. At this time, if you do not pay attention to the diet and consume large amounts of tofu, excessive intake of plant protein will inevitably increase the amount of nitrogen-containing waste generated in the body, thereby increasing the burden on the kidney and making the kidneys. Further decline in function is not conducive to good health.

The soybeans used to make tofu contain a substance called saponin that can not only prevent patients with elevated serum uric acid concentrations, but also easily cause gout if they eat more tofu.

Partial tofu tofu weight causes impotence

Mr. Yang, 40, was recently diagnosed with male erectile dysfunction (ED). Mr. Yang has some doubts: The newspaper said that the disease is often related to obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes and other diseases, and there is nothing wrong with them. They usually exercise regularly. How can it be “not work”?

Dr. Pan Guangxin, deputy chief physician of the Male Medical Treatment Center of the Air Force General Hospital, is the chief physician of Mr. Yang. After inquiring about Mr. Yang’s illness and eating habits, he said: “Your illness is related to eating habits, mainly because you often eat soy products.”

Men suffering from ED, in addition to a clear cause, are sometimes associated with soy products. Men who regularly eat soy products have 3.46 times the ED prevalence of those who do not regularly consume soy products. This is because soy and its products are rich in isoflavone phytoestrogens, especially in men after the age of 40, the natural secretion of androgens begins to decrease. At this time, if large amounts of estrogen are ingested, it will cause adverse sexual function. influences.

Pan Guangxin explained that after the emergence of ED, we must first change the habit of eating soy products and reduce intake. Some urogenital diseases may also be the culprit of ED, such as prostate disease, etc., should be treated promptly. Usually diet irregular living, a long time to maintain a sitting position, lack of exercise, may also induce ED.

Related research: eat tofu, is not conducive to human fertility

A preliminary study by a British scientist laboratory found that a phytochemical in soybeans may be harmful to sperm. According to Reuters, British researchers said that a phytochemical found in soybeans may be harmful to sperm and affect male fertility.

Make sperm lose fertility

Research by Lynn Fraser, a professor at King's College London, has shown that genistein, which mimics the effects of estrogen, affects mice's sperm. At a fertility conference, Fraser said: "Human sperm is more sensitive to genistein than mouse sperm." In the experiment, Fraser found that a small amount of this chemical can destroy male sperm and sperm To the egg, the sperm are "depleted" and lose fertility. The effects on sperm found in the laboratory may not be directly related to real life. But Dr. Allan Percy of the University of Sheffield in England said that the worry is whether these chemicals will affect mature sperm.

Trying to conceive pregnant women eat soy products carefully

Fraser added that if women eat soy and other genistein-rich foods, the impact on male fertility may be even greater, because this chemical is likely to affect spermatozoa when sperm enters the body of women. . Fraser explained: "Mother's exposure to this substance is probably more dangerous than his father's exposure to this substance."

Although this is the initial study, Fraser speculates that these conclusions may affect women trying to conceive. At the meeting of the European Society of Human Breeding and Embryology, she said: "According to our research, if you have a habit of eating lots of soy products, you should limit your diet during ovulation."

Xiao Bian thinks: Now is the time when there is no appetite in the hot summer, eat a little onion mixed with tofu, preserved egg tofu soup is very good, but you can not eat more, if you blindly greedy, you will eat the "anti-cancer star" as a "killer" "It!
