I don't have a strong opinion on soy based on my own experience. Sometimes I've gone more than a month with no soy products, while other times I've eaten soy every day. I didn't notice a major impact either way. I did, however, notice benefits to going raw for a while, but that eliminated a lot more than just soy.
I do enjoy edamame, and so do our kids. I also enjoy tofu with hot sauce.
I don't drink soy milk, since I never liked the taste of it. I prefer rice milk instead.
I suspect much of the controversy around soy is largely driven by financial interests on both sides. It seems like more of a marketing battle than an intellectual one. |
