Question: Do u think soymilk and soy products are bad for u ?

I read an article recently , it's a long article and I can't remember all of it but it said that soy has toxins , affects your thyroid ...says that soy is a multimillion dollar industry ...also that Asians did not use soy as a food for hundreds of years and that's a myth , they used it as a fertilizer .

Just wondering u read anything on soy ? I used to drink soy pretty often but I don't use any soy stuff now very often ...not becuz I read this but I just havent in awhile , I mostly used soymilk and tofu when I first became vegetarian , I like to use ricemilk . Sometimes I like to eat Chinese food made with tofu

Answers:

I know that if you are a man trying to loose weight, boost metabolism, and testosterone; You should avoid soy products because they contain estrogen.

All you need is a Balanced Diet, work with that.
If you are vegetarian, read up on what supplements you need to stay healthy.

I think eating less but all is good its good for health and makes balance diet.

The soybean has a long history and a very long journey through out the world. This journey, lasting almost 27 centuries, changed the world that we know today. Soy products feed a large part of nearly every country's inhabitants, as well as various non-edible uses. The soybean was first cultivated by the Chinese. It then spread further throughout China and to other countries around it. Some time after the domestication of the soy plant, Europeans too learned about the uses of the soybean and they started to grow it. Much later, with a hand from Benjamin Franklin, the soybean made it's journey to America. The soybean has had a lengthy journey, and one that has effected the whole world.

Soybeans were first used as early as the 11th century BC by the Chinese. Soybeans were honored by the ancient Chinese and the emperor Sheng-Nung named it as one of the five sacred plants. Included with soybeans rice, wheat, barley, and millet. Soybeans were used in this early civilization both as food and also as a medicine. Perhaps the soybean actually helped cure sicknesses because of the vitamins that it contains. Centuries after the soybeans were being used by the Chinese, they were domesticated and it is now said that they could be one of the first crops ever to be grown by humans. It wasn't long after this when the rest of the world learned about the benefits of the soybean.
