Being a vegan who tend to opt more for organic food...soy is probably the most biogenetically engineer food.

Yo, I love the way I am and can’t nobody out here change me
Rearrange me, tame me, try to game me, you don’t play me
When I grab the mic then shock the party spot
Your rhymes are flip-flop, I’ll rock, hip-hop
Non-stop, me nah stop rock
You can touch this, but you’ll get shot
Now what’s this all about? kris and humanity
In my face you’re happy, on vinyl you’re mad at me
Yo, pro-blackness is your solution
But I don’t really know about that style you using yo
Too many teachers in the class spoil the class
After awhile you got blabbering fucking fools
That’s worse than always talking about sex, let’s build
It ain’t enough to study clarence 13x
The white man ain’t the devil I promise
You want to see the devil take a look at clarence thomas
Now you’re saying, "who? " like you a owl
Throw in the towel, the devil is colin powell
You talk about being african and being black
Colin powell’s black, but libya he’ll attack
Libya’s in africa, but a black man
Will lead a black man, to fight against his homeland
An accomplice to the devil is a devil too
The devil is anti-human, who the hell are you?
I lecture and rap without rehearsal
I manifest as a black man but I’m universal-BDP(KRS-One)

Everyone is crying out for peace, yes
None is crying out for justice
Everyone is crying out for peace, yes
None is crying out for justice

-P. Tosh

In response to Reply # 23


          

you're the dummy. men have estrogen in their system as well, just like women have testosterone in their system. it's a balance thing, and can really cause problems for men when out of whack. soy contains phytoestrogen compounds. but that's just the tip of the iceberg. it also has a lot of compounds that block the absorption of minerals.

the best source for information about soy is westonaprice.org

Dr. Weston Price was a nutrition pioneer who studied the diets of healthy traditional/indigenous cultures around the globe to see what they had in common that gave them low incidence of tooth decay, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and all other modern diseases.

and i don't want to be a party pooper, but there has never been in the history of mankind a society that was vegan...

and it's got sumin that messes with female hormones.

I'm telling you. If u want to eat healthy, u gonna have to grow your own shit, and hunt for the meat.

It aint natural having fields with nuffin but crops- it's just as bad for nature as logging.

It also aint natural to farm meat.

but ya'll don't hear me tho.

In response to Reply # 3


          

a lot of truth to what you say. you should check out a philosophy and practice called permaculture. it's kind of a happy medium, a "mixed farm" system where they mimic natural ecosystems with food producing plants, shrubs, trees, etc. with animals as well. They call them "food forests". I've seen a documentary where they took these practices to really devastated, impoverished areas in africa and india and turned them into thriving gardens of eden. Not just good for people, the techniques take into account rebuilding soil stability, recharging the water table, attracting wildlife, etc...

Another good source is an old Japanese man named Masanobu Fukuoka, who developed a zen buddhist inspired system of no till natural farming. He naturalizes vegetables to a semi-wild state. He's as much philosopher as he is farmer.

too much information, i know...

but how many people now about this shit?

Hey - I read up, as someone who is hypothyroid (slow metabolism among other probs) n soy is pretty bad for folks with thyroid problems. Some people say it can cause them if abused.

And I don't like the taste of tofu (hahahaha)....

_¸»¬æ¤º²°¯¯°²º¤æ¬«SiG»¬æ¤º²°¯¯°²º¤æ¬«¸_



“Stand out firmly for Justice as witness before God, even against yourselves, against your kin and against your parents, against people who are rich or poor. Do not follow your inclinations or desires lest you deviate from Justice. Remember, God is the best of Protectors and well acquainted with all that you do.”
-Qur’an 4:135

"Don't be deceived when they tell you things are better now. Even if there's no poverty to be seen because the poverty's been hidden. Even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more of these new and useless goods which industries foist on you and even if it seems to you that you never had so much, that is only the slogan of those who still have much more than you. Don't be taken in when they paternally pat you on the shoulder and say that there's no inequality worth speaking of and no more reason to fight because if you believe them they will be completely in charge in their marble homes and granite banks from which they rob the people of the world under the pretence of bringing them culture. Watch out, for as soon as it pleases them they'll send you out to protect their gold in wars whose weapons, rapidly developed by servile scientists, will become more and more deadly until they can with a flick of the finger tear a million of you to pieces."
--Jean Paul Marat, 18th Century French Visionary (and revolutionary), murdered in his bathtub by Royalist Charlotte Corday

1. Prematurely ages brain cells
2. Decreases thyroid activity
3. Blocks mineral absorption such zinc, calcium,magnesium, etc, etc

If you consume soy it's best to eat fermented soy like miso.

In Asia the general practice is to consume it with meat- Soy aids in the digestion of meat, and meat in turn cancels out the negative properties in Soy....

In response to Reply # 0


          

a prominent study of japanese men who ate soy every day found brain degeneration.

as mentioned above, traditionally, soy had always been eaten fermented. miso, nama shoyu soy sauce, tempeh. now tempeh is some good shit!

man, im in thailand travelling right now so ive been eating soy almost everyday to keep my protein intake adequate. soon as i return home im dropping that shit on the fly. but asian countries really do know how to cook a good tofu dish.

1. soymilk is wierd unless its chocolate, which kind of hides the wierdness

2. tofu often ends up becomming airy-wierd insta-mush in your mouth, depending on who cooked it

3. "tofu chicken" is wrong for even TRYING to be like chicken and tasting instead like a sanitized ball of old de-elasticized rubber bands

4. tofu cubes taste like fuckin tofu cubes
