Guest guest Posted February 13, 2002 Report Share Posted February 13, 2002 I will try to find the study if anyone cares. One thing I left out about soy is that, if you eat enough iodine with it, it seems to cancel out any potential negative effects. In Asian countries where people tend to eat plenty of fish, there are less problems than with people on other types of diets without so many servings. The fact that they add iodine to bread in our country is helpful but I dont' eat processed bread for instance. I asked my doctor about this and he said NOT to take kelp or iodine supplements because I may end up with hyperthyroidism. I'm glad he told me that because I was taking it, since I don't eat fish or bread. I do take a kelp tablet on days that I eat soy anyway.

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2002 Report Share Posted February 13, 2002 If you're looking for great tasting soy products, try the Atkins line of products or other lines. I find them at the health food store locally or certain sections of the supermarket. Today I made Keto Pizza Dough, it is soy based. It does have yeast in it like regular dough which isn't on my diet but I just felt like having it (I splurge once in while). I am not on the Atkins diet, and incidentally you can eat these products with lots of veggies is probably healthier. Too much protein and not enough carbs is very hard on the kidneys I am told.
