Sponsor | | RedThunderbird | Apr 26, 2006 7:01pm | Nikname-0,
what it do?
are you worried about your breasts getting too large?
or you don't really wanna get rid of hot flashes?
Granted you are concerned that soy mimics estrogen. |

- Infants: AVOID SOY.
- Men: generally avoid soy but a little tofu isn't going to be fatal.
- Women: ?may be OK.
- People of asian [ancestry] may be in a different category from others.
- Fermented soy products may be different from non.
- Soy supplements are probably the worst IMHO.
- Soy is very hard to digest and gives many people gas.
- Soy is a very common allergen.
I'd probably eat the soy food if it were fermented.
(been itchy to utilize this html part of bbcodextra add-on. pretty useful!) |

I have heard a lot about soy, both good and bad, and it will be interesting to read all these links - v useful and thanks!
Are you all in the States? Can you get Quorn products there? .. I tend to buy all their stuff (Linda McCartney products are fine, if a bit too salty, but I think they are soy based), and I think it is a much better product than soy based substitutes - especially with taste.
I haven't got an answer on the milk thing - I get organic cows milk, but none of us have a milk allergy.
Cooking oil - always olive! |
