A good helper for regulating blood lipids - soybeans

Soy milk, tofu, dried tofu, tofu skin...a soybean can be eaten in a variety of ways. Its also a bean, why are soybeans so favored by people? 

Bad living and eating habits have caused many people to have high blood lipids. If you want to improve blood lipids, adjusting your diet is the basis, and soybeans contain seven experts that protect blood vessels and regulate blood lipids.

1. Soy protein. Replacing some animal protein with soy protein can help reduce LDL cholesterol ("bad" cholesterol), thereby reducing the risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.

2. Soy isoflavones. Soy isoflavones have certain antioxidant effects, which are helpful in scavenging free radicals in the human body, preventing lipid peroxidation, and preventing cardiovascular diseases.

3. Soy lecithin. Soy lecithin helps improve fat absorption and utilization, prevent cholesterol deposition in blood vessels, reduce blood viscosity, promote blood circulation, and prevent cardiovascular diseases.

4. Polyunsaturated fatty acids. Soybean fat contains more than 80% unsaturated fatty acids, which can promote the normal transport and metabolism of cholesterol, prevent the deposition of cholesterol on blood vessel walls, and help reduce "bad" cholesterol and total triglycerides in the blood, thereby reducing hyperlipidemia and Atherosclerosis risk.

5. Vitamin E. Soybeans are a good source of vitamin E, which can inhibit the activity of the rate-limiting enzyme for cholesterol synthesis in the body, thereby lowering plasma cholesterol levels.

When vitamin E is lacking, platelet aggregation and coagulation will be abnormally enhanced, increasing the risk of myocardial infarction and stroke.
