I started eating these organic food bars.

ingredients are listed as : Almonds,raisins,sesame seeds, Agave nectar,sunflower seeds, brown rice syrup,pumpkin seeds, whole grain brown rice crsps, and it says may countain tree nuts and soy.


I keep hearing mixed things about Soy. I hear it gives you estrogen, and I don't need to pack up on some man boobs so should i steer clear of these?

Some soy is fine, just don't overdo it.

Usually if it says "may contain" it means they're either swapping out a rare/expensive but useless ingredient they ran out of, or it was made in the same factory/on the same equipment as those other ingredients and don't want to kill anyone allergic.

I think you should find something else to blame your manboobs or vagina on.

All the anti-soy stuff is hype. Soy is fine.

There's a lot of evidence that it is actually very good for your health. Unless you're consuming a TON of soy, you're not going to notice anything. I don't seek it out, but I also do not avoid it. IMO, regardless of what kind of diet your on there are better protein choices. Soy is quite cheap though..

A little soy is good for you. Although I think it's an abomination the way Americans use soy.
