Soy....Good or Bad?

What can you learn from prison inmates?

Here's a story about the Illinois prison inmates and their consumption of a high soy diet.  In 2002, the governor of Illinois determined that it would be a great cost savings to the state to lower the cost of food in the prison system. So in 2003, inmates began consuming a diet high in processed soy protein as a replacement for meat. Up to 60-70 percent of the protein from every meal came from soy.

These prisoners began to experience the following symptoms:
  • chronic and painful constipation alternating with diarrhea
  • vomiting after eating
  • sharp digestive pains
  • heart palpitations
  • rashes
  • acne
  • insomnia
  • panic attacks
  • depression
  • hypothyroidism
  • brain fog
  • fatigue
  • weight gain
  • frequent infections
  • infertility (after being released)

To this day, the FDA continues to assert that soy is a healthy food, yet, there are numerous scientific studies that show the adverse health effects of soy when consumed.

In addition:

The same FDA that is making these soy health claims has over 288 studies regarding the toxicity of soy filed under their “FDA Poisonous Plant Database”.

What conclusions about soy and it’s place in the diet would you make?
