Regarding soy, this is what I've heard: When tofu gained in popularity, the
soy manufacturers noticed that there was quite of leftover "stuff" (soy
protein isolate-soy waste product). The food manufacturers couldn't stand
the idea of throwing this junk away so they created a market for it:
cereal, protein powders, meal replacement bars, pasta, soy ice cream, etc.
This stuff is nothing but junk. If you're a woman, please keep in mind that
the natural estrogens found in soy contribute to breast cancer and a host of
other female complications. Naturally, the food industry advertised all
this stuff as being healthy but it's actually detrimental to your health.
Please avoid these products.

I've seen several people on this ng talking about avoiding soy and things
made from it. So I'm curious...why?
I've never really used soy products before going low-carb, but I'm not
having any problems with them now that I'm aware of.

According to QUACK Atkins, EVERY FOOD is bad except raw naked flesh
from dead animals. If it aint bloody, it aint food !!!
Atkins was a vampire of sorts, he had to have blood in every food
item.
