What's the issue with soy?


1.) Soy is detrimental to testosterone because it is pro-estrogenic. All men should limit soy consumption.

2.) Soy is goitrogenic, meaning it can inhibit thyroid function.

3.) People think soy is more sustainable or "natural" than meat. Buy soy is the most industrialized and modified food crop out there.

I'd believe corn would capture that crown, however soy is GM.

We plant many acres of both as well as cotton each year so I don't bash Monsanto or big agriculture but I personally only eat what I plant in my own personal garden. I've been known to each edamame on occasion however and not one of those being eaten here is from US. All from China which I can imagine is not exactly organically grown.
