#127 - The Truth About Soy in Midlife


Listen Later

Ever wondered if soy is a friend or foe during menopause? You're definitely not alone. There's so much conflicting information that it’s hard to know what to believe. Some people, like me, are big fans of including soy regularly, while others say it should be avoided completely. It’s a hot topic in the world of nutrition, women’s health, and especially menopause—and today, we’re diving right into it.

I’ll start by clearing up some common myths, then get into the science-backed benefits of soy. Plus, I'll wrap things up with a few easy ways to incorporate more of it into your diet. If you're curious and want to give it a try, I’ve updated my Menopause Nutrition for Undieters Guide with some of my favorite simple, delicious soy-based recipes.

So let’s jump in, bust some myths, and figure out if soy has a place on your plate!
