327. Should I Eat Soy?


Listen Later

In this episode, I'm unmasking the perplexing paradox of soy. How does it impact individuals with Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism? Is it beneficial or detrimental?

Soy is often debated as a health food, but it's high time we address its potential downsides. We'll discuss the multifaceted issues associated with soy consumption, covering everything from inflammation, gastrointestinal distress, and insulin resistance, to estrogenic effects and diminished amino acid absorption.

While some deem soy a dietary staple, we'll provide real-life examples to underscore these health concerns, featuring a candid account from a patient who personally navigated the soy conundrum. Your experiences may resonate with theirs, or you may have your unique story. However, one cannot ignore the hidden dangers of soy and the potential harm it can cause to your body.

In this episode, I stand by the argument that the risks associated with soy, especially for those suffering from Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism, may well outweigh any benefits other deem exist. I believe that there are numerous, safer alternatives to soy that can better provide for bone health, breast protection, and protein sources.

Listen in to make an informed decision about including or excluding soy from your diet, as I dive into how soy's potential detriments may outweigh its proposed health benefits. In the end, my primary goal is your optimum health and wellness, and sometimes, it might mean completely and totally avoiding soy.

Tune in to expand your understanding, become a part of this important conversation, and ultimately, make the right dietary decisions for your unique health journey.
