I read it was bad. But enough of the lame marketing stories. Has any man on here taking soy protein and had bad effects at the gym or the bedroom? ???
-
I've also read this a bunch of times. Sounds like bro-science to be honest.
-
I think it depends on how it is processed.

I think it depends how asian you are.

I drink only soy (no vegan) & never get sex ??? But I wasn't getting any before I switched to soy so it's hard to say.... As for gains, well I don't get any gains at this age so meh.... I only drink it because I prefer the taste over normal milk, nothing more in it really.
-
Bro science maybe.
-
Soy has estrogen in it...In fact to make Depot Testosterone, pharmaceutical companies first extract estrogen from soybeans...then through chemical processes "reverse aromatize" the estrogen into testosterone...
-
Short answer: No.
-
It's pretty estrogenic so, "good" or "bad" would depend upon ones fitness/health goals.
-
I would not worry about it if consumed now and then, but i have heard there is estrogren increase in males, not something I would recommend for say a protein powder.
-
Men shouldn't do soy or licorice - decreases testosterone
-
In combination with other factors - most likely not a good choice.
-
I doubt it makes a difference.
Tried a whey protein which was three quarters soy for a few months and didn't notice anything.

Yea I bought a cheaper dymatize protein and it had soy protein isolate - I wasn't on any hormones and I was working a lot - still squatting heavy the whole time
-
I've used soy protein shackes often. didn't got ginecomastia from it ::).
I believe it's broscience at his best.

Evidence? Examples? Reasons why?
-
recent study found that men consuming regular cow's milk had way more elevation of estrogen levels then the group drinking soy milk.....soy is fine!! Cow's milk not so much

Perhaps due to the hormones given to cows?

Good point.
I've read that chicken and eggs can also have estrogen, due to the hormones given to the animals.
Another reason to use organic products.

Liberals will soon claim soy is a human right and should be supplied by the government for "free"
