More than we realize! Some years ago when Soy Milk was the craze, it became my go-to milk-substitute....anything was better than dairy I thought.Well, that was short-lived, because along with some unpleasant side-effects, I also found out that soy, in its processed form, can be detrimental to hormonal balance. Specifically, processed soy is known to contain phytoestrogens that act as access estrogen in our bodies and cause hormonal imbalance. This was later confirmed by my ND last year; however, the jury was still on whether soy beans/edamame had the same effect. In the meantime, my new milk alternative is Almond milk!
