Daniel, PhD, CCN. Introduction by Sally Fallon, author of Nourishing Traditions. This book tells the truth about soy that scientists know, that you need to know and that the soy industry has tried to supress. In this groundbreaking expose Dr. Daniel explodes the myths about soy. Soy is not a health food, not the answer to world hunger, not a panacea and has never been proven safe. Hundreds of epidemiological, clinical and laboratory studies link soy to malnutrition, digestive problems, thyroid dysfunciton, cognitive decline, reproductive disorders, immune system breakdown, even heart disease and cancer. Most at risk are children given soy formula, vegetarians who eat soy as their main source of protein and adults self-medicating with soy foods and supplements. All fact and no fiction this book provides the information you need to determine which studies are valid, which justify hope, which are mere hype - and why. | Item#: 9780967089751 |
