Re: Have you read some of the negatives about soy?

Hi, Cathay!

Oh, yes, I know plenty of reasons to avoid soy. For example, soy based baby formulas are the common denominator in a lot of precocious puberty for girls. (We had an interesting time trying to stop that little biological clock in my daughter...) Monsanto, of course, LOVES to tinker with genetics in its crops, so unless the soy is organic (which I still don't trust with soy, because Monstanto owns so much of it), it's probably been genetically modified.

I, too, use it sparingly, and prefer to get my protein via mixed sources. But then I still eat dairy, so I don't really have that (complete protein) as an issue of concern. (Then again, I've been fasting a lot lately, and protein really hasn't been a concern at all...)

Really, I stopped trusting soy when the American Heart Association started endorsing it.
