【The Secret Weapon for Senior Health】

According to experts, Taiwan officially entered a “Super-aged society” in 2025, with citizens aged 65 and above accounting for 20% of the population. Notably, the prevalence of sarcopenia among older adults is approximately 6.8%, meaning nearly 300,000 seniors are at risk of muscle loss. Senior health has become a strategic priority requiring collective attention.

To counter muscle decline, specialists advise older adults to consume plant-based high-protein foods such as soy milk and tofu. Compared with animal protein, plant protein is more digestive-friendly and better suited for seniors with reduced chewing capability. An intake of about 20 grams of protein per meal is recommended, with soy-based products offering both easy digestion and strong nutritional value. However, producing soy products that seniors can easily absorb and enjoy depends heavily on advanced front-end processing equipment.

“Every soybean deserves gentle care.” has been our belief for over 60 years. Recently, one of our fully automated tofu production lines was delivered and successfully commissioned. The customer shared: “With Ta Ti Hsing’s precision grinding technology, the soy milk achieves stable concentration, and the tofu develops a fine, smooth texture that seniors especially appreciate.” This genuine feedback demonstrates that Ta Ti Hsing’s automated soybean food equipment not only enhances production efficiency but also preserves the full nutritional value of soybeans—enabling seniors to enjoy a nutritious and vibrant life with ease.
