was Aspartame - in non diet & non sugar free stuff too - now Soy

[Guest guest]

I am so vehemently opposed to any unfermented soy

product because it is an anti-nutrient and is

goitrogenic (anti-thyroid) among other things. It is

also a phytoestrogen which can be especially dangerous

for children and anyone who has estrogen dominance.

 

Here is a link that gives links to a lot of different

articles and studies about the dangers of soy:

You can also do a google search for " soy dangers " and

you won't believe what you come up with.

 

I read every food label before buying and if it

contains soybean oil, flour, etc. I won't buy the

product. I try to avoid soy lecithin too but that is

difficult when I'm dying for a chocolate bar and no

where near a Whole Foods (their brand doesn't have it

and is organic too) ;-) . What drove me nuts was the

fact that I couldn't find bread without soy so started

making my own. Almost every product contains soy but

we eat a well rounded diet even though we avoid it.
