Soy's Thyroid Dangers

http://thyroid.about.com/cs/soyinfo/a/soy.htm

 

Soy and Hypothyroidism

As described in The Menopause Diet, more than 30 mg of isoflavones can send your

thyroid into shutdown by blocking thyroid peroxidase enzymes and stimulating

anti-thyroid antibodies. Over-the counter " natural estrogens " such as Promensil,

also have very high doses of isoflavones derived from red clover instead of soy,

but the effect is the same. Soy is an anti-estrogen, affecting sex drive,

thyroid

function and even tumor cell growth.

Evidence about the harmful qualities of soy is not a

popular subjecton this list. People don't like to be

told that what they like to eat is unhealthy- we see

it all the time with Atkins-lovers.

 

I have been vegetarian a long time, and eventually I

went vegan. My diet was for many years extremely

dependent on soy, even when I wasn't vegan. I now

know that that soy was making me sick. it is a

powerful endocrine disruptor. Since I stopped eating

soy, I have seen a big change in my body, and my lab

tests (I am disabled and have regular labs) also show

a change.

 

For several months I stopped eating soy. Now I eat it

only occasionally. I think soy can be part of a

healthy diet, but a soy-dependent diet is not healthy.

Soy was disrupting my endocrine system. I also think

it's probable that the estrogens in soy were

overwhelming my body.

 

Since I stopped eating soy, my endocrine readings are

much more normal. Also, my ATP levels have risen.

(ATP is the chemical that mitochondria make from

calories; it is the " energy chemical " in cells.

Mitochondria convert calories into ATP, and the cell

uses ATP to yield energy. Because of the nature of my

illness, my ATP levels are checked frequently.) My

ATP levels have risen, and I have a reduced appetite;

these together are evidence that my body is now

utilizing calories more efficiently. Oh, and I don't

have cravings for sweets anymore.

 

I can also honestly say that within the first two

months of dropping soy, I FELT so much better! I felt

more energized, and just less ILL in general.

Sometimes you don't know how something is affecting

you until you stop. I had been eating so much soy,

for so long, that I didn't realize that it was making

me feel bad until I stopped eating it.

 

The shape of my body has visibly changed since I gave

up soy. (Get ready for TMI.) The first thing that

happened was that my breasts got smaller, and the

shape of them changed. They look like different

breasts! I lost inches off of my waist, hips, and

thighs, and I have less cellulite. Cellulite, btw, is

directly linked to estrogen in the body.

 

So that is my tale of How Soy Changed My Life.

rep, that's still a pretty broad generalization. even if it does

affect you, people react to foods differently, some can ingest it in

huge amounts (i might qualify, but most people's consumption is

moderate anyway) and be totally unaffected, and as you recall from our

prior discussion, the science on this one is anything but conclusive.

(not to mention the fact of course most non-vegans expose themselves

to as much hormone risk if not more.) so i contend your case is not

true of the vast majority of people who remain unaffected. there's

more to the picture.

No, what I recall from our prior discussion is that

you choose not to accept the science that says that

soy can be unhealthy- just as many meat-eaters refuse

to accept the science that says the same thing about

meat. That's your choice, and it's your body. You

can do what you want with it. However, the fact that

you find it necessary to be insulting (as in the past)

and to misrepresent what I have said (see below)

doesn't make your " cause " look very good.

 

> so i contend

My last email was me giving my particular experience,

*as requested.* Please do not imply that I ever

claimed it was the experience of everyone. As before,

you misrepresent me instead of responding only to my

words.

 

The vast majority of people are not unaffected- they

just don't know that they are affected. Many medical

scientists are now realizing that the preponderance of

soy in almost every processed food is actually

changing the way the that humans in the West mature,

are sexualized, and live.

Very curious...would this be classified as a food

intolorance, much like people with wheat intolorance

or like me with animal product intolorances?

I ask cause I know that for me Soy is the healthiest

thing I can have. I feel 100x's better if I eat it

with at least 2 meals per day. When I don't I get

lathargic, tired, and tend to get sick, which is the

opposite as you. I find that very interesting because

I have never personally had the opportunity to talk

with someone who has such an intolorance or whatnot.

I am very glad you found out that soy was unhealthy

for you. I know that I got a huge sigh of releif when

I found my problems.

Did a doctor suggest you remove it from you diet (or

nutritionist/healer type as well) or did how did you

come to that conclusion?

" Food allergies " stink.

Wow, that's amazing, Priscilla--I didn't know soy could affect a

person so much. I have read various studies about soy, many saying

it's the best thing to eat on the planet, and others reporting that

it's dangerous. Another one of those cases of " What do I believe? " I

have eaten tofu but that's about it. Anyway, I'm glad you discovered

the cause of your health problems and are feeling better.

my, aren't we defensive, and imho unnecessarily.

 

you made pretty broad statements implying no one but you here was

really capable of reasoning objectively on this subject, and the

implication that your experience validated the broader antisoy

hypothesis was i think easy to find there; in fact you restate it in

your very objection.

 

your recollection of the prior discussion is also entirely incorrect.

i simply produced a link in reply that examined most of the claims

of the soy-bashers pretty much point by point and quite skillfully.

it rejected most or many and suggested on a lot or the rest of them

the jury was still out. perhaps it's not that i'm dogmatically

pro-soy as that you might have a mild or not so mild anti-soy agenda.

free country, others will have to simply decide for themselves.

 

as for your claims regarding hormonal influence, i repeat that people

respond individually, and i'm far more inclined to suspect the

hormone-saturated dairy consumption instead.

 

so i quite reject your " insulting " misrepresentation, it seems to rest

on equally flawed recollectings. not that you seem likely to retract.

 

if you go into the world spoiling for and anticipating fights, you'll

find them where they would otherwise not normally happen. this is the

internet: thick skin highly recommended.

You go out of your way to attack *my* posts, rather

than respond to anyone else's posts on the subject-

such as the one that spawned this discussion.

No, I didn't. I did say that any intimation that soy

is unhealthy is not very well-received here, and the

archives certainly back me up on that.

It is freely available in the archives.

Do you realize how paranoid that sounds?

As I have reiterated.

To what " hormone-saturated dairy consumption " do you

refer? I did not eat dairy for several years- instead

I used soy products. I did not return to dairy until

I gave up soy. Since I brought dairy back into my

diet, my health has improved immensely. And btw, I

use organic milk from cows not treated with BGH.

Since the posts in question are still in the archives,

it's quite obvious, to whomever you are trying to

convince, that youe behavior was as I characterize it.

Your current behavior further supports that

characterization.

People, please let it go! I am in another group where a discussion

about politics got out of hand, and now one member left the group.

(And she was a great gal.) I totally respect the right to express

your opinions. To some, soy is good, to some, soy is bad. And that's

that. Let's be a group that can handle disagreements and move on.

Sorry if I sound overly sensitive, but my other group's dissension

went way too far, and I'd hate to see that happen here. Peace!

Well said, Aimee. i think this discussion has

crossed the line from an informative sharing

of information over to a clash of personalities.

 

i want to thank Priscilla & rad for the information

they have shared on this interesting topic in the

past posts. However, unless either of you has more

information to share, such as links to reports or

articles, then maybe it is time to table it.

Thank you. :)

Greetings All,

 

It is my opinion that the author of this soy post has all our best interests

at heart. That said, I believe that we should consider that should we reply.

i answered your post because yours was the one with the pretty

unmistakeable anti-soy agenda which, as the link i supplied before,

was not truly based in science and which, as someone here has noted,

seems to have a lot more with the beef slaughter industry's agenda.

undoubtedly, -- but i also submit that those who've read the tone of

your prior posts will have no difficulty finding your dismissal of

other data on this, -- like your characterization of the link i gave.

indeed. i'd bet not one single person here will even bother looking,

but i recall it well, as i'm the one who posted the link.

anyone who reads this will probably far less " paranoia " in that polite

request for you to consider a different perspective than in your very

response there. i fear we'll be forced to disagree again.

one almost could have predicted you'd do this. i did NOT refer to you

specifically, i referred to your broad, sweeping, and probably ie

generalization that soy was the evil culprit behind every health and

social ill around.

 

you should notice, however, that it seems not to be the minority

veg/vegans who are the problem. unless you somehow believe george

bush is the vegan and dennis kucinich the carnivorous hormone-crazed

warlord instead of the reverse. kindly pay closer attention to what i

actually say instead of what you imagine me to be saying.

i think i'm again quite happy to let people judge who sticks with the

facts themselves and who has the axe to grind.

the difficulty is that you regard ANY insinuation you are incorrect as

" insult " and " condescension " , which is, i regret to say, an observably

human trait. we are all, therefore under the moral imperative to

cease treating others who speak to our shortcomings, however politely,

as insulting condescending " attackers " .

 

someone else here suggested we ascribe you with good motives. i've

never questioned that, i've tried to stick to the facts from square

one. you have, i suggest with your many " condescension " and

" paranoia " cracks along the way as above, entirely failed to extend me

the same courtesy or benefit of doubt. perhaps we can agree one

should aim higher in future.
