Hi all,
I'm hearing unfermented soy (e.g soy milk, tofu..) isn't good for you
because of it's phytic acid content and phytoestrogen messing up the
body's hormones (especially thyroid for women), and how it's been
actually overstated how much soy Asians traditionally ate - who tend to
eat more fermented soy e.g. miso, soy sauce (is this a food!?), etc..

As far as my personal diet goes, I just enjoy soymilk and occasional soy
cheeses. I rarely eat TVP products as I try to eat unprocessed as much
as possible (I have little desire to actually pretend eating meat)

What is the truth here? I like my soymilk.

thanks!
