RE: Soy Equals ManBoobs
Aw! Thank you so much for this comment @raj808. At least you are not alone in this problem. But as you say - and I did not mention - those who are vegetarian and vegan are also consuming a lot of soy. And in today's food supply, so much of that is garbage. It's one thing to get "healthy soy" and prepare it well. It's another to eat the pre-processed fake meat - and who knows about the TVP.
Soy came on as a HUGE fad in the 1970's. All of the sudden it was everywhere. There were drinks and yogurt and all other soy junk on the shelves. My mom was a stay at home housewife who cooked healthy food and would have none of it. She did not like soy anything and I was lucky to take on her prejudice. All that estrogen is good for no one.
I'm so glad to hear from you. You have been on my mind. I know you can overcome your SIBO - or at least improve. I hope I will be able to help.
Hang in there and let's be sure to stay in touch.
Sorry I didn't comment on that post you pointed me too a few days ago @fitinfunfood. Honestly, the list of foods I can or can't have is insane and it is extremely complex. As I have done more research and joined SIBO groups on facebook, I can see that there are many different ways to go and some people have success with one protocol where others don't. It is just a case of trial and error.
I am going to have to rely on myself for this one, as a huge amount of what I'm going to be doing over the next 6 months is trial and error experimenting. Thanks for your advice though and the one thing I have taken from your blogs so far that is 100% applicable in what I need to do is to cut out processed foods.
I shall be keeping an eye on them for sure. Much love 🙂 🥕 🥗
