About Soy

Soy products have been a part of the standard diet in China, Japan, Indonesia, and other countries for centuries. In these countries, it is known that soy products can play an important role in disease prevention. On the other hand, heavily-processed, genetically-manipulated (non-organic) soy, or overuse of soy can be unhealthy.

It should also be noted that soy is not the main source of dietary protein.  Vegetables, whole grains, lean meats (e.g., fish), other legumes, etc. make up much of the diet. Such a balanced diet with the addition of soy products provides the maximum health-building and disease prevention benefits. 

I have read an number of articles about potential dangers of soy products. A person who occasionally ingests traditionally-processed soy products (miso, tempah, natto, tofu) and otherwise has a balanced, healthy diet and lifestyle will not have to be overly-concerned with the potential dangers of soy. However, those who eat soy regularly, especially products with heavily-processed or genetically-manipulated soy ingredients should pay close attention to the issues relating to the potential dangers of those soy products.

The best and safest way to include soy in your diet is to make it yourself.  Only then do you know exactly what is in your soy milk, tofu, etc.
