Question
Recently, my child has been experiencing digestive problems, with poor appetite, sometimes vomiting milk, and constipation. The stomach feels hard, and often requires massaging to help digestion. Relatives suggested that eating soybeans could help with bowel movements. I would like to understand the benefits and effects of soybeans?
Answer
Soybeans, also known as soy, contain a high protein content, equivalent to the protein content of 1500 grams of eggs, 6000 grams of milk, or 1000 grams of lean pork in 500 grams of soybeans. Soybeans contain the highest fat content among legumes, with an oil yield of up to 20%, and are rich in various vitamins and minerals. Soybeans are praised as ’the king of beans'.
