RE:Eating Soy products

[Guest guest]

Check out the website www.doctorsaredangerous.com

<http://www.doctorsaredangerous.com/> and read the article on soy. It is

scary.

I would be interested in everyone's feedback, especially the part about

Vitamin D assimilation.

And, Butch, what becomes glaringly apparent in this article is that the beef

industry (i.e., fast food beef-McD's) and all the burgeoning soy products

being produced are mostly responsible for the increase in deforestation, not

the aromatic products industry itself. A better solution to reverse the

trend than curtailing our purchases of rosewood oil might be to stop eating

beef and soy, especially the fast-food variety. Before beef/soy, it was the

rosewood furniture/musical instrument biz. I was one of the first to take

rosewood off my list . . . Prolly going to rethink that.

 

Be well,

Here is one article that makes it clear what the problems are .. the

 

problems are not about Rosewood. Butch

SAO PAULO, Brazil - The rate of Amazon deforestation rose sharply

during the last five months of 2007 as land was cleared for soy and

cattle, prompting a top-level emergency meeting Thursday by

government officials to deal with the problem.
