Well, back in my 40's when I was starting to have some pre-menopausal symptoms, I started looking into alternative treatments for symptom relief, and I took a soy supplement for a few months, then I started doing my homework, and then it scared the crap out of me, and I stopped taking what wasn't working anyway. Since then, I have been reading, from time to time, articles on the effects of soy. I figure that if Japan has one of the lowest fertility rates in the world, there must be a reason.
They also have the highest instances of gastric cancer in the world.
I too thank you for posting this info. I'm not a soy eater but my Mom and Sister in law are. They both suffer from thyroid problems. I've forwarded the info to them.
