Soy products: dangerous?

Question
Could you please tell me if there are any serious side effects to eating soyburgers or any soy products? Thank you very much. Al Brown

Answer
Al,

Soy is linked to infertility, breast cancer, hypothyroidism, thyroid cancer, and many other disorders. "The trouble with modern soy products is that fast industrial processing does not equate to historical methods of fermenting "for two summers" or boiling "for the length of an incense". The method of modern get-rich-quick corporations is simply to leave these well-known natural toxins in our products," states the 'SoyOnline.co.nz'

Dr Andrew Weil said that evidence for the health benefits of soy in  Asia is very strong, however, he said, "Japanese and other Asian peoples eat only moderate amounts of whole soy foods. They don't eat highly processed soy foods, such as fake hot dogs and ersatz hamburgers."
