Hello Folks
Here are some links to various articles on the dangers of consuming
non-fermented soy products that appeared in a recent edition of Dr.
Mercola's newsletter: www.mercola.com
Cheers,

"Dow Chemical and DuPont, the same corporations that brought misery and
death to millions around the world through Agent Orange, are now the
driving forces behind the promotion of soy as a food for humans. They
are financing anti-meat and anti-milk campaigns aimed largely at those
concerned about animal welfare and the environment, trying to convince
them that imitations such as "soymilk" are not only healthier than the
real thing, but better for the earth too. There is no evidence that
consuming soy products can improve health, reduce environmental
degradation or slow global warming. In fact, the evidence suggests quite
the opposite.The studies below regarding the effects of soy on health
are eye-opening, particularly the review by the American Heart
Association -- which no longer supports the health claims about soy
endorsed by the U.S. government."
