WTF, Men's Health magazine and some health forum article (whose author believes water fluoridation is an industrial conspiracy) are considered reliable sources now?
By these standards, the case for the unsustainable and unhealthy nature of meat is airtight. But if you want a more reliable source, seek out the UNEP report on sustainable resource management.

- jessedhillon 14y agoYes the JACN article is at least a scientific study. It is one data point however, and AFAIK the only study to find a link between soy intake and decreased cognition -- compared with a large body of research that has associated intake of soy isoflavones with better health, including better cognition. These include studies of typical Asian diets, which are known to be higher in soy than Western diets. If one was to look at the entire scientific literature honestly and soberly, I think the evidence would overwhelmingly support the claim for soy health benefits.
- mangodrunk 14y agoThat is the one study often used, but I haven't seen others. One study shouldn't be used to conclusively say something is bad or healthy. So are there similar issues in cultures that do consume more soy?
