What's the problem with Soy?

[cherierhynes]

What about its benefits? I eat organic soy as tofu, tempeh and miso. I like the cost the taste and the health benefits.. I read that it is good for my blood type based on research in a book titled 'Eat right for your blood type.' The consumers of meat and dairy are in reality the true consumers of the gmo soy grown locally in western all of which goes to the silo feeds.

Dr Hyman is a proponent of it…. I feel defeated by conflicting expert views

If you soak your organic soy beans overnight, rinse them and cook them well like other beans/lentils/nuts/seeds = no phytates, no lectins and no glyphosate to worry about.
Harder to guarantee the same with soy flakes, but still possible...
Avoid bread with soy mixes though (plenty in cheap bakeries/supermarket bread nowdays).

You can get organic soy. Was wondering in grain brain why you didn’t like soy. Unfortunately if your vegan trying to manage carbs, beans, legumes and eliminate soy is tuff. I had gene test and am lactose intolerant, gluten sensitive, and have poor detoxification and methylation pathways, so they don’t advise much meat. So one does have to tweak food and supplements to match your system. Your gene expression now makes sense why some people feel sooo much better vegan and others do not.

What about phytoestrogens from organic soy products for perimenopausal and post menopausal women?

Organic soy is available. Cooking denatures the phytic acid rendering it no longer an anti nutrient. I have organic soy every day. I know it is bland but hey it is one of the few vegan complete proteins. Thanks for sharing your opinion. I do not eat GMO foods so there. Take care.

But what exactly is wrong with GMO? Bananas are perhaps the most genetically modified of all foods around, as in when humans found them, only about 10% of the banana was edible. What exactly about this breeding process makes them "bad"?

A lot of East Asian people eat soy like soy sauce. It's part of the diet.

Is organicTamari ok? It is fermented soy..

[skylarc]

i know this is a bit offtopic but dose anyone have a opinion on lagumes in dog food? i often see it as a replacment for rice and potatos, is it the better alternetive or just as problematic?

[CalmVibesVee]

I cant even eat pork or chicken anymore due to the soy feed.

Dr. Perlmutter, why do you look so much younger than you did 10 years ago, because I want what you're

[Mxxjzz]

I eat organic soy it’s cheap. Not too often but i do eat it and this argument is controversial
