A member asked:
Is it true that soy is harmful in excess to boys?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Define excess ?!: Since many oriental cultures use soy beans as one of their major protein sources I am truly skeptical to the cult myths that soy is bad. Or that soy will turn boys too feminine, or whatever. Look up tofu and explore the benefits listen.
