Sep 6, 2008 - Hi doctor, I enjoy your videos! Question: is organic soy milk (not the kind used for infants) safe and beneficial?

mercola Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - No. Organic soy milk still has all the negative side effects that I mentioned in the video.

Sep 6, 2008 - Are you going to do one on raw milk?

Sep 6, 2008 - Can soy, eaten in moderation, really be that bad? Millions of Asians have eaten tofu for thousands of years!

Sep 6, 2008 - Soy is really that bad, or worse than he made it sound. It's a horrible food that cannot be healthfully eaten. Asians have been eating fermented soy products, and not for thousands of years. Only one or two thousand years. Plus they have only eaten soy in small amounts as condiments. The average Japanese gets a couple teaspoons of soy a day. It's still not good for you but fermenting it neutralizes some of the bad stuff.

Sep 6, 2008 - Much of the information regarding the dangers of soy to children focuses on infants. However, my son was breastfed until 14 months and has since been given soymilk (due to dairy allergies). Is he in danger of the developmental side affects widely thought to be related to soy? Is there a "good" type of soymilk?

Sep 6, 2008 - My mom had thyroid cancer, she's all better now after surgery, -- but do you think that soy could have had anything to do with it?

WhyIWearTheVeil Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - Yeah, it is that bad. It's why asians are short.

Sep 6, 2008 - I hate to hear this about the soy. I use soy milk every moring. Cow's milk hurts my stomach among other things. What do you suggest if you want milk and cannot drink cow's milk?

Sep 6, 2008 - Almond milk, oat milk, rice milk, among others.

bassisboss Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - I believe that many folks like to think that soy can be eaten as an acceptable alternative to animal products. Regardless of your religion (or anti-cruelty to animal beliefs), I don't think that we can get away from the fact that our main protein source MUST come from animals (hopefully hormone free and raised the way nature intended). My particular rule of thumb is that if a food can (historically) be eaten and digested raw (botulism notwithstanding) it's probably meant for humans.

seh97001 Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - I agree that soy is bad. I have been a veggie for a long time, and I was misinformed. It's a good thing that I found out about it before my children started eating it.

hydarnes Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - I can't believe people will even be falling for this pseudo-science NONSENSE. Any evidence linking soy with anything potentially negative can't even compare with the volumes of scientific proof associating flesh meat with cancer and heart disease. Asians have been eating soy without any of the problems that we as Americans have been facing NOT eating soy. This is just downright sad.

Sep 6, 2008 - @hydarnessounds to me like you havent done much research.i have drank soy milk for a long enough time to be able to say that it is indeed unhealthy for you. i stopped when it started making me constipated

pewterfig Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - we are eating fermented soy, not the soy that you eat.

gammaray0wn Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - Soy is slowly becoming one of the most common food allergies. Which is very bad because almost everything contains soy or soy derivatives.

Adrenalyn Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - I'm a Vegan and I eat soy everything and ToFu all the time... I've recently been diagnosed with cervical cancer and now all I eat is sweet potatoes brown Rice and fresh organnic veggies. I hate it. I miss Soy, but it is bad for you.

leia176o Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - It's nto nonsense. Farm factory meat islinked to cancer, not wild lean meat. Check out teh paleo diet or caveman diet. It's what we evolved on for millions of years.

dakotateresa Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - Asian have been eating primarilly FERMENTED soy... They don't eat soy beans or unfermented soy like we do. They use unfermented soy as a condiment for the most part and not as a major staple of their diet.

guardrailgirl Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - I'm a vegetarian and use a ton of morningstar meat replacement products. Are these GMO foods? What else can I eat? I eat regular tofu. But, I am not the greatest cook either. What do you drink instead of Cows milk? rice milk?
