Soy: The Poison Seed

 

Soy: The Poison Seed

This piece will be short and very much to the point. As Americas largest cash

crop soy is being touted as having a myriad of health benefits. Far from! Soy

is poison, period! All paid for opinion to the contrary.

 

What's bad about soy?:

 

Contains Isoflavones (Genistein and Daidzein). In soy the isoflavones are built

in insecticides. If they kill bugs are they good for humans?

 

Isoflavones are estrogen like substances which have the same effect as the

bodies estrogen. Cancer comes from having too much estrogen. Irritability and

mood swings, fat gain from the waist down, fibrocystic breast disease uterine

fibromas are all associated with estrogen dominance. Instead of helping prevent

the bad effects of environmental or natural estrogen dominance soy isoflavones

are now known to increase the bad effect of estradiol and estrone the two major

bad guys of the estrogen family. (1,2,3).

 

Kills testicular tissue. In men it permanently reduces testicular function and

lowers Lutinizing Hormone production. LH is what signals your testicles to work.

This increases the probability of estrogen dominance in men with its hair loss,

swollen and cancerous prostates. (4,5). Male children fed soy formulas and soy

products may not ever get to like girls. Dorris Rapp MD, the worlds leading

pediatric allergist, asserts that environmental and food estrogens are

responsible for the increase in male homosexuality and the worldwide reduction

in male fertility. (6)

 

Isoflavones decrease thyroid hormone production. This can stunt children's

growth and make the rest of us tired and fat. (7,8,9).

 

Female children fed the estrogens in soy formula and products hit puberty very

very early sometimes as young as age 6 to 8! (10).

 

Pregnant women eating soy products may effect the sexual differentiation of

their children. Studies show malformations of the reproductive tract or

offspring born with both male and female sexual organs. (11).

 

Isoflavones decrease GOOD cholesterol (HDL). (12,13).

 

Soy contains Phytin, which takes essential minerals such as iron, zinc,

magnesium etc. out of the body before they can be absorbed. Also soy contains

Trypsin inhibitors block this vital anti cancer enzyme, anti fibrosis enzyme.

(14).

 

A 7000 man 30 year epidemiological study done in Hawaii shows soy is connected

with a higher rate of Vascular Dementia (Alzheimer's disease). (15,16).

 

Any opinions to contradict the facts noted above have been paid for by the

Agribusiness giants Monsanto and Archer Daniels Midland. Once public knowledge

of their manipulation of public opinion and of the FDA becomes widely known,

expect monster class action lawsuits against these folks. They'll deserve it in

spades!

 

Be well and God bless!
