If regular milk is that bad, I thought soymilk might be an option. I've heard soymilk isn't good, can anyone explain why?

I won't eat or drink soy unless it is organic, as most soy is genetically modified franken food brought to you by Monsanto.

Confused About Soy?--Soy Dangers Summarized
  • 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.
  • Soy phytoestrogens are potent antithyroid agents that cause hypothyroidism and may cause thyroid cancer. In infants, consumption of soy formula has been linked to autoimmune thyroid disease.
  • 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.
  • Fragile proteins are denatured during high temperature processing to make soy protein isolate and textured vegetable protein.
  • Processing of soy protein results in the formation of toxic lysinoalanine and highly carcinogenic nitrosamines.
  • 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.

Seriously???
I made sure I always bought the calcium enriched variety of soymilk too ... because of the lack of in soymilk.


OMG!!!
If milk is out, and even soy milk is full of all the above outlined .... then what's there left to drink?

Rice milk? Ugh!

Some soy is bad for you. it isn't the soy itself, it's the method of fermentation of the soy. Google soy and fermentation, read both sides, then decide.


milk has puss in it, you can google that too.

no, it is not. it is enriched, nothing about it is natural, and if you live in the U.S. it is worse.

Yeah it's kinda sickening to see all this plastered crap on food products (OMEGA 3 ENRICHED...etc.)

Blech; I'll stick with organics, thankyouverymuch.

Soy also lowers testosterone. It is supposed to help fight prostate cancer, but make you less of a man in the process.
Eat bison instead of beef.

It just tastes like watered down milk really...

I, of course, prefer homo milk.

We have a soy milk maker at home and only use organic soy beans to make the milk...

The soy milk maker is basically a kettle that heats up and blends the beans with about a litre and a half of water....
