Soy I am hearing it is bad for you can someone tell me why ?!


Question: Soy products deplete your zinc intake by as much as 50% due to the high content of phytic acid and phytates that hinder the absorption of zinc and to a lesser extent the absorption of iron.

Anyone who consumes soy products needs to take a zinc supplement every day.

Never ever give soy products to kids because a zinc deficiency can stunt their growth and this has actually happened to some kids in Asia who thrived on soy products and grew into short adults.

Soy in its natural form is poisonous. Any thing that has to be precessed so much just to be edible can't be good for you .
