Tofu Question?

Question

Is tofu actually a product that is really good for you, or just better for you as compared to meat? Is there anything you would be missing from meat that you can't make up for?

Answer 1

tofu is just a cheap protein source. But it is also manufactured and standards vary from manufacturer to manufacturer.  While tofu (or beter yet bean curd) in itself is a good source of protein, some manufaturer's standards are lower so theri products may be contaminated or not totally hygeinic. In that sense, it may not be good for you.

Being a food, over consumption may to problems as with over consumption of any food. also iot must be a part of an overall healthy diet.
