Re: The Thyroid dangers of Soy

 

 

rep, that's still a pretty broad generalization. even

if it does affect you, people react to foods

differently, some can ingest it in huge amounts (i

might qualify, but most people's consumption is

moderate anyway) and be totally unaffected, and as you

recall from our prior discussion, the science on this

one is anything but conclusive. (not to mention the

fact of course most non-vegans expose themselves

to as much hormone risk if not more.) so i contend

your case is not true of the vast majority of people

who remain unaffected. there's more to the picture.

 

 

--Watch the super documentary SUPERSIZE ME sometime.

It is amusing, at first. Then it becomes scary. The

guy who made it decided to see how harmful fast food

would be on his very healthy body. He ate for a month

only what McDonald's sold, and had a rule that, if

asked, he would super-size. (He was asked only 9

times in the month.)

 

--His doctors at first expect him to gain a bit of

weight and so on, but soon they notice very bad things

happening, such as liver damage. They are astonished

and advise him to stop long before the month is over

but he goes on, risking actual death.

 

--During this appalling slide into poor health he

finds a guy who is eating his 19,000th Big Mac. They

have kept track at his local McDonald's because he

comes in and eats at least two a day, every day. He

was perfectly healthy and had normal cholesterol.

 

--This demonstrated that different people metabolise

differently. (Also, Mr. 19,000 said he rarely if ever

eats the fries, so he blamed them. lol)

 

--In any case, sobering documentary and full of facts

and revelations and many things McDonald's would just

as soon you never knew. True evil.
