Soy products are really great at helping prevent most forms of breast cancer.
Except:
There is one rare form out of the 8 types of breast cancer, which is genetically based, this form of breast cancer, well actually increase develop of cancerous tumors with an increase of soy protein.
They help prevent it.
Women in asian countries who eat a lot of soy have a lower incidence of cancer.
They contain phytoestroegens which are beneficial.
I don't understand why people are worried about the phytoestrogens in soy when the milk they drink and the meat they eat is chock-full of artificial hormones that are far more harmful than anything you'll find in soy. Soy products are said to help alleviate symptoms of menopause without the threat of heart disease that horse pee pills (Premarin and other HRT drugs) have.
Eat soy in moderation and look for organic soy products whenever possible.
I heard they prevent it...but I can't say for sure.
One thing that you should keep in mind, is that like most wheat soy has quit a lot of pesticides, if possible, buy certified organic. Remember that some companies register the name "organica or organics" etc but that doesn't mean that they are organic....(I work in environmental law....we have been doing research...)
there is no such thing as soy milk, its soy juice, cause there are no SOY COWS!!!!
