“NO, I DON’T WANT SOY WITH THAT”
Diet Shakes With Soy (added) Bread With Soy, Schnitzel With Soy, Burgers With Soy, Quiche With Soy, Chorizo With Soy Etc Get The Picture? And Everyone Says “YES!”……….”We Don’t Want Soy!” It’s In Almost Everything You Can Think Of. Yes Anything You Can Imagine, If You Haven’t Checked The Packets, Cans And Labels. And We Should Tell Them “NO! I’m Not Buying That”……..Your Best Way To Protest is: Speak Up And Leave The Products On The Shelves (this is more effective in numbers, the more of us the better, don’t wait for someone else). Tell The Cafes, Bakeries And Restaurants “NO SOY”……. Give These Manufacturers, Shops And Venues A Hard Time, So They Have To Take Notice Of Us. Enough IS Enough. They’ve Placed Enough Impositions On Us (for convenience, to cut corners) Lets Impose Our Standards On Them – We’re Far Too Passive, We Didn’t Speak Up. Friends, We Need To Do This.
I Will Give You Enough Reasons To In This Post. Is SOY Healthy? NO! One Of The Major Mistakes Made By Professionals And Health Stores Alike And Now We Have This Problem.
THEY CLEAR LAND OF TREES TO PLANT CANOLA AND SOY. THE CROPS ARE HEAVILY SPRAYED WITH TOXIC PESTICIDES AND MOST CROPS ARE GMO (Genetically Modified) Monsanto rubbish, referred to by True Professional Researchers as Franken Foods (named after Frankenstein). Pun Intended.
I Will Be Making A Post On Monsanto And GMOs Soon But Now To Inform You Correctly About SOYA BEANS.
They Are Not Actually Meant To Be Ingested And You Will Know The FACTS For Yourself.
Soy Dangers Summarized
By Joseph Mercola - A Leading Health Advocate
Vitamin B12 analogs in soy are Not Absorbed and actually increase the body's requirement for B12.
Soy foods increase the body's requirement for vitamin D.
Free Glutamic acid or MSG, a potent neurotoxin, is formed during soy food processing and additional amounts are added to many soy foods.
Soy foods contain high levels of Aluminum which is toxic to the nervous system and the kidneys.
High levels of phytic acid in soy reduce assimilation of calcium, magnesium, copper, iron and zinc.
Phytic acid in soy is not neutralized by ordinary preparation methods such as soaking, sprouting and long, slow cooking. High phytate diets have caused growth problems in children.
Trypsin inhibitors in Soy interfere with protein digestion and may cause pancreatic disorders. In test animals soy containing trypsin inhibitors caused stunted growth.
Soy phytoestrogens disrupt endocrine function and have the potential to cause infertility and to promote breast cancer in adult women.
Processing of Soy Protein (like TVP etc) results in the formation of toxic lysinoalanine and highly carcinogenic nitrosamines.
Has Hemagglutinin, a clot-promoting substance that causes your Red Blood Cells to clump together. These clumped cells are unable to properly absorb and distribute oxygen to your tissues.
Natural toxins known as "anti-nutrients" -- Soy also contains other anti-nutritional factors such as saponins, soyatoxin, protease inhibitors, and oxalates. Some of these factors interfere with the enzymes you need to digest protein. While a small amount of anti-nutrients would not likely cause a problem, the amount of Soy that many Americans are now eating is extremely high.
If you are consuming processed soy products including SOY MILK and you think you are doing yourself a favour, please review the major problems with consuming Soy so you can make an Educated Decision…
Nitrites, which are potent carcinogens, are formed during the spray-drying of Soy.
Soy Protein Isolates, which are shown to enlarge the pancreas and thyroid and increase fatty acid deposits in the liver.
Soy contains toxic Isoflavones.
Soy foods have a high concentration of goitrogens which block production of thyroid hormones.

(Others already listed by Mercola)
In Conclusion: Health Manufacturers who sell Soy Powders, Concentrates and Isolates do not have your best interest at heart....and this includes some Phyto-Estrogen products. Mind you, some are innocent and some "professionals" choose the path of blatant ignorance making comments like "there is for and against". There was an old school of thought that it's 'good for you' that dies slowly with those who refuse to be up-dated.....and yes, this includes some Nutritionists, Dietitians and some Naturopaths.
Genetically Engineered Soy
In 2018, 94% of the soybeans in the USA were genetically engineered. Most Genetically Engineered Soy has been directly sprayed with Glyphosate and other herbicides, some of which are carcinogenic Glyphosate has made recent news for being the subject of more than 10,000 cancer lawsuits. Statistics don't Lie!

Truly, The Ignorance Of Some “Professionals” Is Unbelievable! (I Could Be Sure They Do Their Research With Their Eyes Shut. They Believe What They Want To Believe). I Could Do Better Than That When I Started Out In Research. Be Careful Who Is Influencing You.
Soy has become more widely adopted into SOME Vegan and Vegetarian diets. But, you also might have heard it can cause a plethora of problems including fatigue, digestive ills, bloating, constipation, weight gain, hormonal imbalances, as well as cancer. Depending what foods you often buy, it’s in your diet. The effects are accumulative over time. So yes, Soy is actually bad for you? If we Check Labels well and avoid Processed Foods as much as possible, keeping to Real Foods, this will benefit our health.
Deforestation and Global Warming
Voracious global consumption of Soy is a leading force behind destruction of the tropical rain forests. Monocrops often drive small-scale family farmers out of business. And Soy is one of the biggest monocrops on the planet. But where is all this Soy going? The vast majority isn’t turning into edamame, tofu, tempeh, or miso. It’s not even turning into Soy burgers or Soy milk.
Approximately three-quarters of the world’s Soy Harvest is used as Livestock Feed. There’s actually more Soy in a pound of feedlot beef than there is in a pound of tofu (500g). So make sure you know what the Cows were Fed – either go for Organic OR Grass Fed Or be very Sparing.
SO WE SEE HERE, ONE OF THE REASONS FOR GLOBAL CLIMATE WARMING AND LOTS OF HEAT WAVES LIKE NEVER BEFORE: NOT ONLY THE BUILDING AND FURNITURE INDUSTRY; NOT ONLY THE PAPER INDUSTRY THAT SUPPLIES STATIONARY, TOILET PAPER AND JUNKMAIL WASTAGE, BUT FEEDING A HUGE AMOUNT OF LIVESTOCK. ONE COULD SAY THEY’RE DETERMINED TO MAKE US HAVE SOY IF WE CHOOSE TO OR NOT. A RUDE AWAKENING. I DO NOT WANT TO SUPPORT THAT.
Soy will Save your Heart?
This could not be further than the truth. A problem of great concern is that a soy-rich diet has no effect on preventing heart disease…at best. And experts have known it for years. One independent lab study actually found that it directly worsens existing heart disease.
Other Claims Are Proven To Be Flawed Also - Based On Ignorance.
Do be advised.
Most leading Natural Health Advocates (scientists, researchers and physicians) are strongly advising us against Soya Beans, Soya Milk, Soy Powders and Isolates, TVP and Tofu now. The case against them is strong in recent years, thanks to new knowledge, as you see above. With mounting evidence from case histories and vital statics info from those on Western Soy Diets – including some Asians who have adopted them – so-called ‘healthy soy’ is NOT Healthy for you at all.
Of concern, there is now growing evidence of this reflecting through generations – from parent’s health to babies and children. If you are interested in your family’s health, you would be well advised to avoid this health masquerader and those who choose to promote it, as they have often sold their professional integrity to the Soy Industry. In that case, they are not professional at all. The TRUE Asian Diet does Include some FERMENTED SOY that is Not Genetically Modified (GMO) and the crops are not heavily sprayed with nasty chemicals like notorious Round-Up. Don’t learn from the ignorant but learn from the wise!
USA - What's In My Soy Products HERE In Australia It Will Not Be Much Different
TAKE CARE!
Soy as health food? Think again! Only a few decades ago, the soybean (unfermented) was considered unfit to eat - even in Asia. Here, it has been touted as a ― health food.
The soybean was not considered as food until the discovery of fermentation techniques around 1027A.D. to 221 B.C. Soy as food was always in fermented form like tempeh, natto, miso and soy sauce (without all the sugar and salt added)
Unfermented soy contains growth-suppressing agents. When the growth-blocking agents were lowered by fermenting, Soy began as a dietary staple. But the soybean was always fermented first, never eaten in its unfermented form.
Unfermented soybeans were never eaten because soybeans contains large quantities of natural toxins which are actually "anti-nutrients". These anti-nutrients block enzymes that are necessary for digestion and assimilation.
The natural Toxins in Soy can produce serious gastric distress and difficulties in digesting proteins and amino acids.
Some of these natural Toxins in Soybeans are growth inhibitors, and since they block nutrient absorption, they should never be fed to children and babies.
Soybeans typically contain one of the highest phytate levels of any legume.
Only fermenting techniques will lower this nutrient blocker!
So then, if you are a Vegetarian, eating tofu and soy products as a substitute for meat and protein will cause nutritional deficiencies. Not only does the risk of B12 deficiency go way up, but mineral deficiencies are common as well. Zinc, Calcium, Magnesium and Iron deficiencies have all been noted but Zinc deficiency is often the worst.
READ THIS!
Soy‘s positive effects on Cholesterol Levels are questionable, say Scientists....
In addition, studies in which cholesterol levels were lowered through either (Soy) Diet or Medical drugs have actually resulted in a greater number of deaths in the treatment groups than in controls - deaths from stroke, cancer, intestinal disorders, accident and suicide.
WE ALL NEED SOME GOOD HEALTHY CHOLESTEROL FOR OUR HEART, BRAIN AND SPINAL COLUMN TO WORK EFFICIENTLY. TRUTH IS THAT STATINS LOWER YOUR GOOD CHOLESTEROL (HDL) AS WELL AS THE LDL BIG PHARMA KEEPS TELLING MP/GPs TO MAKE THE COUNT LOWER AND LOWER. THIS IS DANGEROUS ADVICE and IT'S BIG PHARMA'S FAVOURITE "CASH COW". SORRY TO SAY THAT BUT IT'S TRUE. DO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE MEDICAL SUPERVISION IF YOU DECIDE TO COME OFF STATINS. OR THE ASSISTANCE OF A GOOD NATUROPATH OR HERBALIST BECAUSE YOUR BODY IS ACCUSTOMED TO THEM (Please Be Advised).
Soy disrupts the Digestive, Immune and Neuro-Endocrine Systems of the human body.
It should be obvious that Soy is Not a miracle food, and it certainly is Not a health food!
Says Mike Geary Certified Nutrition Specialist and Catherine Ebeling – RN, BSN
A VERY INTERESTING STORY
A family member says he did a Google Search for Sausages without Soy and the only one he could find, surprisingly is Vegetarian Sausages - because they're very particular what they eat. His question is "Why are there Vegetarian Sausages without Soy? And why don't Vegetarians want to eat Soy? If Vegetarians don't want to eat Soy, then why should the rest of us? They even had a few without Soy, everyone else had none.
ALL the "Normal" Sausages had SOY. So I'd like to ask you, where are the Consumers Choices here? The same Question applies to so much of what we buy. Why do they Add Soy to most products? Convenience friends, and to cut costs in manufacture - at the expense of our health!
SAY "NO" TO SOY - LET THEM HEAR THIS AND SEE THIS WHEN YOU'RE SHOPPING.
(˚◡˚ ✿)
More INFO on two Pages of my Health Website – Natural Health Is Best – Truth On Soy! HERE And So You Still Think Soy Is Healthy? HERE You will find two short Videos on the first Page. I wish you well.
PS: Obviously, the Vegetarians SAY NO, what's to stop you from doing the same? Say NO to these Manufacturers - SHOW them what you like and what you don't. They've given us "a hard time" let's return the SAME and Get Results. Tired of "SOY in Everything?" TELL THEM Friends!
Every NO Counts.
TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH WHEN SHOPPING - WHATEVER IS BAD FOR OUR HEALTH IS NOT GOOD FOR OUR IMMUNE SYSTEM. GUARD IT WITH THE CHOICES YOU MAKE and CHECKING LABELS, HEY?
