The dangers of Soy

soy burgers and soy bacon, yeah right. when the dog and cats wont even go near it when its in there food dish you know somethings wrong.

 

Got any reputable and neutral sources to back up this claptrap?

 

Diesel engines were originally designed to run on peanut oil... so what does that tell you?



Some links to appropriately researched articles would be nice.

 

Jimmy Carter could end the energy crisis with peanut oil?

 

My son and his wife are both Drs. They are really reasonable about most things and really are not health nuts at all. They however will not under any circumstances allow their baby daughter any soy products. The reason for this is that soy contains a chemical that mimics estrogen in the body and can cause all kinds of troubles for little girls. In countries where soy is a staple the girls mature much earlier because of this factor. It's not uncommon at all for them to have their period at age 8 or so. I researched this and it's a well known fact. The thing that I didn't see which I thought was wierd is, what is the effect of this female hormone on boys?

The author seems to be a lone dissenting voice although a quick Google finds many opposing viewpoints, the consensus seems to be at some point there might be some truth to her findings.

Maybe not a neutral source ,....

So who knows?

Any idea how many foods contain soy?

 

its not that foods may contain it which isnt a big deal, its the food that are made FROM it that are the problem. instead of a cake with a little frosting you get a pan full of frosting with a thin layer of cake.
