Soy (OT)

[Guest guest]

Hello Geraldine and all,

 

You are right - cow's milk does present some dangers and I am slowly

coming around to the idea that it really is not good for a person at

all. I'm not ready to kick my Nestle Quik addiction just yet (LOL!) but

I can see why so many folks have... And to quote Jack Lalane " Only baby

cows need to drink cows milk - are you a baby cow? " hahahaha.... I

think he is probably right.

 

The thing that worries me about soy is that so much of it contaminated

with heavy pesticides and is also genetically engineered. We can thank

the Monsanto corporation for that. I think that is more scary that

cow's milk in alot of ways. So I never use soy unless it is totally

organic and that is hard to find consistently and is kind of expensive.

I agree that soy can be better for some folks than dairy but if you

consume alot of it I would double check to make sure it is organic.

 

Just my two cents worth...

 

Peace!

will find that cow's milk contains way more estrogen than soy milk, along with

other lactating hormones, antibiotics, bovine growth hormone, etc, etc. Cows,

like humans, throw off large amounts of hormones into their milk, to help their

children grow!! Only, cow babies need lots more of these chemicals than human

babies. Human milk contains estrogen, progesterone, oxytocin, and lots more, to

help our children develop, only in appropriate amounts. In addition, cows milk

always presents the danger of allergies to the protiens and casien, infection

from E. Coli and similar dangerous bacterias, listeria, etc. It is much more

common than people think. You most likely will never hear of soy being infected

with these. So, at the risk of sounding preachy I will stick with soy, and

recommend it to others, my children have done very well with it.
