      Milk cannot be cooked with soy milk.

      The reason is that one theory comes from the "trypsin inhibitor" in soy milk. In fact, it is also a kind of protein, but it hinders the body's digestion of protein, making the protein digestibility in raw beans less than 40%. If you eat it, it will also hinder the absorption of protein from other foods.

      However, as long as it is cooked and processed, most of the trypsin inhibitors in soybeans will be inactivated. Therefore, people have been drinking soy milk with confidence for thousands of years. The key lies in the heating time of the soy milk. It is best to boil it and then heat it on low heat for 8 minutes to ensure that the trypsin inhibitor destruction rate reaches more than 90%.
