I don't know if to believe it or not, but I'm avoiding soy either way. I don't see any benefits over something else.

Its proven soy increases estrogen levels, so all men should avoid it anyway. Soy is aimed more at sucking in the female population into the myth that its a heathier choice when in fact its their diets in general, not a lack in soy.

Yes. I avoid soy as much as possible.

It's actually difficult since soybeans are cheap soy is used in just about everything. From bread to mayonnaise to seasonings. If it isn't pure most likely soy was used in the process.

I don't know how much legitimate science is behind this stuff. I use to get a soy drink from starbucks, but I haven't had starbucks in like 3 years.

This is the sort of evidence that has substance unlike a lot of other anti-soy sites. The rest might as well be copied using ****stains from a bunny ranch whore

"In a Harvard study published last year in the journal Human Reproduction, Jorge E. Chavarro, M.D., Sc.D., and his colleagues found a strong association between men's consumption of soy foods and decreased sperm counts. Ninety-nine men reported their intake of 15 different soy-based foods, then underwent semen analysis. Those in the highest category of daily soy intake averaged 32 percent fewer sperm per milliliter of ejaculate than those who went sans soy."

"In older men and older women alike, however, they found exactly the opposite indication: Participants over age 68 who were regularly eating the most tofu had double the risk of dementia and memory impairment as those consuming a more moderate amount. "We were very surprised by this at the time," says Hogervorst, "but a new consensus is starting to form now. Hormones and hormonelike products are not very good for people over 65.""

Sounds MORE than ample evidence that men should NOT consume soy. Watch your soy consumption guys.
