Tofu and meat are both foods rich in protein, but tofu can only replace a part of meat, not meat completely. Because the protein content of many high-quality meats, such as chicken breast and fish, is much higher than that of tofu, it is necessary to ensure that the human body consumes enough protein to lose weight healthily. On this premise, eating only tofu and getting enough protein will consume more calories than eating meat, which is not conducive to losing weight.
Moreover, protein contained in meat belongs to animal protein, and protein contained in tofu belongs to plant protein, which is more conducive to human absorption than plant protein. Protein of human body consists of 20 kinds of amino acids, of which 12 kinds are called non-essential amino acids, which can be synthesized by human body through its own biochemical reaction, and 8 kinds cannot be synthesized by human body, and the amino acids that must be provided by food are called essential amino acids. Animal protein generally contains 8 essential amino acids, while plant protein contains very few essential amino acids, especially lysine. So you can't just eat tofu without meat.
Moreover, meat also contains some trace elements and vitamins that tofu does not have, such as vitamin B 12. These vitamins and trace elements are very important to keep healthy, so it is not recommended to completely replace meat with tofu during weight loss. Moreover, eating too much tofu is easy to cause indigestion, which is not conducive to health.
However, in order to prevent excessive meat intake, tofu can still be used instead of some meat. Although we should pay attention to diet control during weight loss, we should still ensure full and comprehensive intake of nutrition. Eat less fried food, don't eat too much sugar, and exercise more. Eat less and exercise more, and persevere will naturally achieve the goal of losing weight.
