A member asked:
Consuming soya chunks on daily basis leads to constipation? is it advice able to do so... 50 grams approx.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Listen to your body: Soy can inhibit the thyroid in some people. Try a different protein. Or eat soy with laxative deep leafy greens and see if this solves the problem. A balanced diet with fresh vegetables, fruits, unprocessed foods, good essential fatty acids, high quality proteins, and good starches are needed for optimal health and bowel function.
