This is because only when the blood is sufficient can the complexion be rosy and beautiful, the menstrual blood be regular, and the spirit be vigorous. If you are not good at nourishing the blood, you are prone to having a sallow complexion, pale lips and nails, dizziness, fatigue, dry hair and numb limbs, small menstrual blood volume, delayed menstruation, pale tongue and thin pulse.

1. Tofu is rich in nutrients. It contains many trace elements necessary for the human body, such as iron, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, etc. It also contains carbohydrates, vegetable oils and rich high-quality protein. It is known as "plant meat". The biological value of soybean protein is comparable to that of fish, making it the best among plant proteins. Soy protein is a complete protein with a relatively good amino acid composition. It contains almost all the amino acids necessary for the human body. Soybeans can be cooked and eaten directly, but the human body's digestion and absorption rate of their protein is only 65%, but when made into tofu, the digestion rate can be increased to 92%~95%.

2. The soybeans used to make tofu contain about 18% fat, most of which can be transferred to the tofu. Soybean oil contains a large proportion of linoleic acid and does not contain cholesterol, which is beneficial to the growth and development of human nerves, blood vessels, and brain.

3. Tofu does not contain cholesterol and is a medicinal food for patients with hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, arteriosclerosis, and coronary heart disease.

4. Tofu is rich in phytoestrogens, which are good for preventing and treating osteoporosis.
