- collyw 7y agoWhat are legitimate) reasons for people being anti-soy? 4chan says that it raises oestrogen, but I was treating this as usual 4chan trolling.

Much of the soy processing is problematic if you're trying to avoid industrialized foods. There are a lot of sites that explain these issues, so it shouldn't be hard to find one if you're interested.

- geddy 7y agoSoy does not increase estrogen and I wish people would stop spreading this misinformation. Also, your situation is anecdotal and thus insignificant for trying to prove some point. I drink a gallon of soy milk a week and tofu and tempeh almost daily. Never had a problem with anything, best shape of my life, and highest test levels ever.

Also, soyabean is mostly GM, which doesn't go down so well in EU either, though some varieties are approved for use - possibly due to further labelling requirements: https://www.fsai.ie/legislation/food_legislation/gmos/labelling_of_gm_food.html https://www.fsai.ie/legislation/food_legislation/gmos/labell... and the association with the (over)use of glyphosate.
