Naturopath Questions Soy milk

Does soy milk have side effects for men?

I heard that soy milk can affect on testosterone levels for men. I know that soy milk can cause negative side effects in women, so it isn't too out there for me to believe. Do you think it's true?

Soy milk is not a good choice. If you are wanting to be diary free, try coconut or macadamia nut milks instead. Or better yet, make them yourself! That's even better.
No. Good protein source.
Soy milk contains Phytoestrogen. their chemical structure resembles the structure of the sex hormone estrogen. With that said they are much weaker than normal estrogen so it won't have the same impact on you.

Simply put, as long as you are not downing it by the gallon you will be fine. Enjoy your soy milk!
There are many school of thoughts regarding soy and soy-related products. One thing is that the majority of soy is GMO related. Of course, you could argue that there is still a small range of soy seeds that is being unadulterated. However, how can we assure that where they will be planted would not be affected by its GMO neighbor?
