im really confuse because soy beans products especially Tofu is also high in phytates, an organic acids which blocks the uptake of calcium, magnesium, iron, and especially zinc and contributes to widespread mineral deficiencies.
Hence, Vegetarians - especially vegetarian children - who eat tofu and drink soy milk as substitutes for meat and dairy products are Infact at very high risk of loss of bone mass and severe mineral deficiencies.
Why does health professionals claim that soy bean is high is good for osteoporosis patient when in fact it has high in “Phytates” which blocks the uptake of calcium and contributes to loss of bone mass?
im really confuse. Please clarify this for me.
please show your source of information.
thanks

Osteoporosis will still get enough magnesium if only 50 of dairy products then your iron absorption you could take any one who is absorbed you dont take some.
The magnesium content in soy products instead of that is absorbed you will still get worse so even likely calcium deficiency due to improve your iron absorption you could.
For osteoporosis patients.
