10 Health Benefits of Tofu
Health Benefit #5: Improves Blood Glucose Levels
Tofu is thought to improve blood glucose levels, which is very important especially for those diagnosed with diabetes. By having normal or close to normal blood glucose levels, the risk of diabetes is reduced, as well as the risk of various short-term and long-term complications related to diabetes. Those who consume tofu on a regular basis will have an improvement of baseline insulin levels, as well as average fasting blood glucose levels.
However, more studies are needed to confirm this link between regular tofu consumption and reduced risk of diabetes.
