Soybean is high in calories, why is it called an ideal diet food?
Soybean has high nutritional value and is called "king of beans", "meat in the field" and "green milk". It is the most respected food among hundreds of natural foods. Soybean has three functions: calcium supplementation, slimming and beauty. Soybean is rich in protein, and 500g of soybean contains protein equivalent to1500g of eggs, 6000mg of milk and1000g of lean pork. So its nutritional value can be imagined. However, many people don't know much about the slimming effect of soybeans:

Soluble fiber contained in soybean can not only relieve constipation, but also reduce cholesterol content; Soybean contains a substance that inhibits pancreatic enzyme, which has therapeutic effect on diabetes and can reduce blood lipid and blood pressure. Saponins contained in soybean have obvious hypolipidemic effect, and at the same time, can inhibit weight gain.

In addition, some people may not know that cholecystokinin is a magic weapon to lose weight. This substance is related to digestion, which can control appetite and make food stay in the stomach for a longer time. The study found that the content of cholecystokinin in people who ate soybeans doubled after eating them. Soybeans can also keep your blood sugar at a constant level, so you won't feel hungry easily, so soybeans can lose weight.

Nutrition tip: Although the nutritional value of soybean is high, it will be reduced if it is not eaten properly. The content of protein in soybean is high, and protein can be converted into amino acids, which requires an enzyme, but there is a substance in raw soybean that will prevent this enzyme from decomposing protein. Only by heating for a long time can it be destroyed, and protein can be successfully converted into amino acids.
