Soy protein

Good alternative to other proteins or not?

soy is fine, not by itself but in limited amounts

Men should NEVER!!! use soy protein because the phytochemicals in it mimic estrogen.

As for women, my guess would be that if you trying to lean out, the increase in estrogen might make that harder to achieve.

Plus it's a substandard quality of protein.
You'd be better off spending a little extra $ and getting a quality source, IMHO.

thats been disproven
soy in small amounts is fine.
many blends have it, blend i use does.
we all need estrogen keeping it in check is the issue

I used Soy back in my early 20's as a natty.
I can tell you that it def gave me gyno! It was cheap so I was using large amounts of it.
Don't think smaller amounts would've had the same negative effect but I just stay away from it when I can.

I read about it being bad for guys if used in large quantities. I eat some once a day instead of quark.

thats the issue studies show in large quantities
small quantities actually have benefits
