I just want to know what other people think? I have my own opinions.

    I don't have concerns about soy in the fairly limited quantity that I might eat/drink it.

    I think "bad" would only apply if you have an allergy or sensitivity to it.

    Not good if you have any thyroid issues. I have also heard many products are made from GMO soy and may not be as good.

  • Some people argue that soy elevates the risk of breast cancer and such, but it's such a staple vegetable protein for vegetarians.
