Is a 3-month-old baby able to drink soy milk?

Patient's question:

Is it okay for a 3-month-old to drink soy milk? At what age can one start drinking soy milk?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, if the baby is under one year old, it is not advisable to drink soy milk. This is because the digestive system of infants has not yet developed fully. Although soy milk is rich in nutrients, infants may find it difficult to digest. Therefore, it is best not to give soy milk to infants under one year old, and it is recommended to wait until the child is over one year old before drinking soy milk.
