Soybean milk is a kind of nutritious drink, which has a lot of benefits on human body. However, it is not suitable for every one. There are some groups of people who should not drink too much soybean milk. Otherwise, it may bring serious consequences on their body.

Firstly, the patients who suffer from gout
Gout is disease that is caused by the disorder of purine metabolism, while soybean is rich in purine, which is a kind of hydrophilic material. As a result, after the soybean is made into soybean milk, the content of purine will be significantly increased. Therefore, the patients who suffer from gout should drink less soybean milk. However, this does not mean that they have to totally keep away from soybean milk. It only means that they should strictly control the amount of soybean milk that they drink. What's more, in order to prevent and treat gout, it is also very important to control the intake of the oil and fatty foods such as meat and fish.

Secondly, people whose gastrointestinal function is relatively poor
Traditional Chinese medical science believes that, soybean milk is cold in nature, so people who suffer from indigestion, belch gas and stomach problems should not drink too much soybean milk. In addition, under the action of the enzyme, soybean milk will produce a lot of gas, so people who suffer from abdominal distension and diarrhea should not drink soybean milk. What's more, those acute gastritis and chronic gastritis patients are advised not to eat soybean products, so as not to stimulate the excessive secretion of gastric acid, which may aggravate the condition of the disease or cause flatulence.

Thirdly, patients who are at the recovery period after the surgery or illness
After the surgery or illness, the resistant ability of the patients' body is generally very weak, and their gastrointestinal function is relatively very poor, so they should not drink the cold-natured soybean milk during the recovery period. Otherwise, it may easily lead to nausea, diarrhea and other serious symptoms. Experts point out that, during the recovery period, the patients had better drink yogurt, which can promote digestion, and protect the function of the stomach and intestines.

Fourthly, the patients with kidney stones
The oxalic acid contained in soybean milk will combine with the calcium in the kidney, which not only will easily form into stones, but also may aggravate the symptoms of kidney stones. As a result, the patients with kidney stones should not drink soybean milk.
