Japanese management nutritionist Kyoko Adachi pointed out that foods high in carbohydrates will cause blood sugar levels to rise rapidly. At this time, the body will secrete insulin to prevent the increase in blood sugar levels, but insulin will also convert the remaining carbohydrates into fat. Blood sugar levels are not only related to diabetes, but also closely related to obesity.

The Japanese expert conducted an experiment and ate a piece of frozen tofu every day for 10 days. Initially, the blood sugar level after breakfast was 152 - 158. After eating frozen tofu every day, the blood sugar level after the meal decreased to 123 - 127.

Frozen tofu also contains resistant protein, which helps prevent and improve high blood fat and improve immunity, helping to stabilize blood sugar.

Frozen tofu is made by freezing and cooking tofu, so the nutritional value of tofu and its calcium content is about 5 times higher than that of regular tofu.

To control blood sugar, we should eat foods containing carbohydrates in moderation and should use frozen tofu instead.
