Comments

[idontpussyfoot]

i try not to eat too much of it or build my diet around it. but other than that, i'm very thankful for it!

[obscurities]

.i am thankful for it also... i try not to build around it either. thank you for your input.

Good! No doubt. The only way it became bad is when the dairy industry in the US started making stories about how bad it is YET they refuse to comment on how bad milk is for you. Asian countries have been eating all forms of soy forever with no problems at all. Tofu, soy milk, soy treats, and they eat it like 3 to4 4 times a DAY. Yet do they develop anything these false studies assume? no.

.i agree to a certain degree, that is why i am looking up all i can find and seeing who funded this shit. :D

...i do prefer rice milke though. have you had it?

[not_for_real]

yeah, i bought it back in my experimenting with new foods days. I prefer soy milk though cuz rice milk is like watered down soy milk. Both are good though. Rice cream too. yum!

[obscurities]

.rice cream... sounds kinda good.

[nobodylkl]

depends. good in moderation i think.

[obscurities]

.everything is good in moderation they say... i just heard that it makes you bloated and is actually not a very good food source... with the chemicals in it and what it may do over time to the brain...

i like soy, a lot. and the protein content is excellent.

but i'm not really supposed to have soy. i drink rice milk instead, which i actually like better.

[obscurities]

.i drink rice milk. but i eat tofurkey sausages probably one or two times a week, and i heard that soy can make you bloated.. so i dunno. i try to eat a lot of organic fruits and veggies but i am not sure i eat enough of em.

.i was just reading studies on soy intake and shit. made me question how much i should be consuming.

[mistress14star]

well, yeah, there's all sorts of crazy things soy can do to you in mass quantities and over long periods of time..

if that's the only soy you're really consuming on a regular basis, i wouldn't worry about it too much..

i think those studies are more based on people who consume a few servings of soy per day.

[obscurities]

.i am just trying to research all i can. it is amusing to see who paid for such analysis' on this shit.

[findmenowhere]

most soy is genetically modified. we don't know in which way it may influence our future generations.

[obscurities]

.correct, i buy the organic kind that is not genetically modified.
