Tofu: a treasure house of nutrition for pregnant women

Tofu, seemingly ordinary food, contains rich nutritional treasures: high-quality protein, high amino acids, unsaturated fatty acids, carbohydrates, potassium, calcium, magnesium and so on. For ordinary people, eating tofu can inject full energy into the body. Then, as a special group, can pregnant women also enjoy the nutrition brought by tofu?

Replenish energy

Vitamins and inorganic salts in tofu can replenish energy for pregnant women, eliminate fatigue and make life more energetic during pregnancy.

Promote fetal development

Protein, calcium, magnesium and other elements in tofu play a vital role in the development of fetal bones and brains.

Eat with kelp.

Saponin in tofu can promote iodine excretion and cause iodine deficiency. It is recommended to eat it with kelp to ensure a balanced nutrition.

Selective cooking

When making tofu, stew rather than stir-fry can better retain the nutritional value of tofu.

Moderate consumption

Pregnant women should avoid frying tofu with cooking oil and try to choose fresh tofu to ensure food safety and nutritional value. As long as you pay attention to proper consumption and master the correct cooking methods, tofu will become an indispensable nutritional treasure house during pregnancy.
