HEALTH BENEFITS OF TOFU
A healthy alternative to meat,  just 4oz. of tofu provides 9.2g of protein, 18.3% of the daily value for protein. Rich in soy protein, consuming tofu can lower total cholesterol levels. It also contains iron and copper, both needed for the transporting and releasing of oxygen throughout the body.  Tofu also contains calcium, essential for bone health and can help prevent osteoporosis. Tofu also provides 14.4% of the daily value of omega 3 fatty acids, which provide numerous health benefits themselves such as cardiovascular health, improve the ratio of good to bad cholesterol, and reduces inflammation. Selenium is also found in tofu, which is necessary for the proper functioning of the antioxidant system, which reduces levels of damaging free radicals in the body.
