Tofu is a common delicious ingredient. Whether it is hot-cooked tofu, oil tofu cooked in Kwantung, or hot-flavored tofu, it is precisely because of its variety that it has become a popular delicacy on the dining table. In addition, tofu is not hot and rich in protein, and it tastes so full. It is also a good ingredient for muscle building and fat loss. The following is a Chinese doctor and nutritionist to explain the efficacy of tofu, and choose and eat.

"Tofu" is a bean product with yellow beans as the main raw material. There are many types of tofu products, including plate tofu, tender tofu, oil tofu, syrup tofu, and 100-page tofu. In addition to protein, it also contains rich nutrients such as calcium, vitamin E, lecithin and cysteine. Because it is low in heat and rich in protein, many people also use the "tofu weight loss method" to reduce weight, which can be said to be a golden ingredient for muscle building and fat loss.

Jingo Dokan Middle School Medical Clinic Zhou Luting pointed out that tofu is rich in protein and dietary fiber. It is low in heat and can increase stomach foot sensation and cervical sterol retention. In contrast, it is suitable for those who are increasing muscle and reducing fat and eating.

In addition, gypsum, one of the raw materials of tofu, is very suitable for people with dry and hot substances, such as stomach heat and dampness and liver dysfunction. In Chinese medicine, gypsum is usually combined with Chinese medicines such as Huanglian and Apricotum to clear stomach and heat and moisturize. However, because it is sweet and cold in nature, it is not suitable for people with cold body quality to eat too much. People with painful scents and patients with kidney diseases should also pay attention to the amount and do not take too much.

How to choose tofu as much as possible and tender tofu

? Zhang Jiarong, a nutritionist at Kyoto Doku, said that he should choose to choose as close to the yellow bean prototype as possible. He did not over-process tofu, such as plate tofu, traditional tofu, and tender tofu, and reduce the selection of 100-page tofu and fish tofu. The heat and charcoal content of 100-page tofu is more than twice that of traditional tofu. The raw materials of fish tofu are not yellow beans, but charcoal and other raw materials, so he is not real tofu, so he should avoid taking charcoals when eating.

In addition to tofu, many bean products also contain a lot of protein. For example, a bean paste of 1 cup of mug contains about 1.5 eggs. However, be careful that the bean paste is rich in calcium, which is actually very low, so you can also use sesame to supplement the calcium. In addition, due to the low moisture content, dried tofu has greatly improved nutritional density. If you want to supplement calcium and protein, dried tofu is a good choice.

Yellow bean products can be matched with fruit

Zhang Jiarong reminds that different foods contain different amino acids. We can use food matching to supplement the complete protein required by the body. For example, yellow bean products can be matched with foods of all grains or fruit seeds. Because yellow bean products have lower "methiamine" and rich "isanic acid", while grains and fruits have low "isanic acid" content, but high "methiamine" content, the two can supplement each other's lack of amino acids to meet the needs of complete protein.

Zhou Luting also reminded that eating methods can effectively help us absorb the nutrients needed by our body, but if consumed too much, it will cause the reverse effect, so remember to take it balancedly.
