I've never heard of anyone allergic to soy.... ever...

You would if you lived here. In this crunchy-granola town, everyone's been
doing soy for so long, we've BTDT.

Hey, but if i turn to stone, someone can take chips off me, drill holes and
make
beads. Not a bad thought, really.

You, Jalynne, are a NUTBALL.

I so, so, SO like you.

Geez, I'm very allergic to soy. When I did my allergy testing for foods
that one was off the scale. They had to medicate me then and there.

I can't have soy at all. Once i had a coffee drink with soy milk, and two days later
had the worst flare up of my endometriosis I'd ever had. The estrogens in it are
hell for me.

A friend of ours has a nutrition degree and has worked in natural foods
for years. She gave us the downside to the praises of soy. Its is
helpful in small doses, however it is actually harmful to women's
hormones in larger doses. She seemed pretty upset about how its being
pushed.

I was reading about that. It's dangerous -- it mimics estrogen or something
like that. It can be encouraging to cancers, etc. Especially female-type
cancers. shudder

Just wait until I am feeling GOOD. You'll want to run and hide.

I personally am against it because it is a top allergen that is being
over-pushed as healthy. I've heard a lot about using soy milk in
schools, and it makes me so mad! Some parents want peanuts out because
they are an allergen, but soy is just as bad. I

I've never heard this - and find it somewhat amazing - Japanese have eaten soy
protein for a long time
(i.e. tofu...) - I've never heard of anyone allergic to soy.... ever...

Wow, that's odd! I did a lot of research about it after my two trips to
the emergency room last year. Soy, peanuts and shellfish are considered
the top three by far with the other things such as whey, chocolate, etc.
much further behind. Since my reaction, I've met many people who are
allergic or sensitive to it. Some people are allergic to some forms of
it but not others. I don't really understand a lot about why people
develop allergies, but I've been told that if you have always eaten
something regularly, you won't develop an allergy. Soy used to just give
me heartburn, so I avoided it. Then last spring, a protein powder that I
drank began adding it, and I never even thought to look at the
ingredients. The first time I tried the new mix with soy, I was sick
within a few minutes. Perhaps the regular soy users are better
accustomed to it.
But definitely it can be a problem for hormone levels in people who
aren't allergic to it. I don't remember the details, but its something
about "phyto estrogen" (?) that in high doses does more harm than good.
Our natural health advisor was telling us that it has become a problem
with the way its being pushed, because women, instead of having a
beneficial single serving, are getting too much of it.

I think excess phyto estrogen inhibits the normal production of estrogen.

By the way, mjoann, We'd love to know little more about you. What part of
the States(?). What kinds of beading you like. What we should call you.
Etc. So we can properly welcome you here.
