BAZINGA! Kill them with logic

20.5.12-UPDATE about the Evilness of Soytan

Soooytaaaan wants your soul...and brains..

Oh and love this write up...take a look

soy and all that it is about


And I got again into a discussion where I was blamed to be blinded by the pro Soy agenda, hailing Tofu as the holy Mary of health, the sole and only  source of healthy food for asians *eyeroll* but no wonder, when asked where I wrote that, no quote could be given.

Seems  that hate really blinds and makes you see things.

Read this article

I dared to question the wisdom of this research because there was no mentioning if they had taken other brain shrinking stuff into context.

Like meat consumption, drinking alcohol, smoking and so on..

So because I dared to question the article I was said to be a soybean loving, no bad seeing, soy promoter who doesn´t warn others of the evilness of soy...

Oh well, I was amused.

Just to keep it short in some sentences..oh well you know I can not keep it short.



GMO is bad, buy organic..no..GMO is really no laughing matter.

Avoid isolated proteinextracts  and products made from it..go for old style, organic soy products.
If you want to eat tofu and don´t have bad reactions, do it..if you don´t like tofu there is no need to eat it.
There is enough food out there for you to eat, no need for soyproducts if you don´t like them.

Miso, tempeh and fermented tofu are better than soymilk and tofu for you, but that doesn´t mean that organic tofu eaten in resonable ammounts will bring you to hell.

If you solely get your calories from tofu, well..that is not resonable. Putting soy in the same place and ammount as animal products were eaten before is also not reasonable.

Just as with animal foods before, not getting your veggies and fruits, just opting tofu instead of meat and dairy may make you  a bit healthier(organic, non GMO tofu because you no longer get all the hormones, saturated fat and chemicals from animals), but that isn´t really good nutrition.


If you have problems with the thyroid, cabbage and unfermented soy can be a problem for you...avoid both or see how much you can eat without problems.
It is said that algaes eaten normally in the japanese kitchen are the reason why they don´t have problems with low thyroid hormone levels, so maybe you want to eat some kombu broth or crumbled algaes?

About breastcancer, well the research is contraindicating itself...some say the phytohormones are a problem, so better avoid all animal products because they are high in real hormones and other plants with high phytooestrogen levels.

Other studies say that the phytoestrogen of soy is blocking the access for real estrogen, blocking cancer growth..if you feel unsure, don´t eat...simple.

I am neither pro Soy nor anti-soy...I just dislike this tofu-racism  that is vomited all over the net where soy /tofu is blamed for all kind of things and research is presented without real footing showen.

So if there is a research showing that non GMO tofu shrinks the brain, with people not eating/smoking/drinking other brain damaging,  shrinking stuff, I will gladly share this research and warn people from consuming tofu.

But until then, tofu is a food..simple..just as grains..and just because some people have celiac disease  I have never seen the same wheat-racism beeing applied to all gluten containing grainproducts  as it is done with tofu.
