Can children drink soy milk?

Children’s diet is different from that of adults, because their organs are not yet fully developed, so their immunity and digestive abilities are not as strong as those of adults. The food we provide to children should be easy to digest and should be light. We are very particular about what we feed children and we cannot be careless at all. So can children drink soy milk?

Soy milk is made from high-quality soybeans as the main raw material. The canned, bottled, and boxed soy milk available on the market, or more precisely, soy milk drinks, as well as instant soy milk powder, mostly contain milk powder and milk! Pure soy milk in simple bags does not contain any milk or milk powder, and its main ingredient is soybeans!
