Many people are used to drinking a glass of milk with oats in the morning, which tastes smooth and full, and people who are rushing to work often eat it for breakfast; In this regard, health expert Tan Dunci said that milk and oats are very healthy foods, but the combination of the two may not be appropriate. High calcium in milk and phytic acid in oats will hinder the absorption of calcium by human body. Recommended with soy milk. Osteoporosis is a common chronic disease in the elderly. According to the statistics of the Osteoporosis Society of the Republic of China, the proportion of osteoporosis in adults over 50 years old in China is 40% for women and 24% for men. Over the age of 65, 1 person in every 4 people suffers from vertebral compression fracture due to osteoporosis. Tan Dunci, a nurse practitioner in the Poison Laboratory of Linkou Chang Gung Hospital, said that milk is rich in calcium, which is very helpful for strengthening bones. Many people are used to drinking milk to supplement calcium and prevent osteoporosis, but the wrong habit of drinking milk may hinder the absorption of calcium. For example, it is a common mistake to add oats to milk, because phytic acid rich in oats will combine with high calcium and iron in milk, which will reduce the absorption rate of calcium in small intestine and accelerate the excretion of calcium. Nurse Tan Dunci, who is rich in calcium in edamame, suggested that it is more appropriate to drink oatmeal with soybean milk for breakfast, which will not affect the absorption rate of calcium, and bean products also contain calcium. Vegetarians who are worried about insufficient calcium intake can eat more beans and soy products. For example, edamame is rich in calcium, and eating half a bowl can make up the calcium needed for one day. She reminded that oats also contain high phosphorus, and patients with kidney disease had better eat less.
