Guest guest Posted December 29, 2001 Report Share Posted December 29, 2001 I agree! So how expert are the experts??? Grace, a Augustine I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish you enough ''Hello's " to get you through the final goodbye. --anonymous ----- Original Message ----- From: Carma Paden Sent: Saturday, December 29, 2001 10:37 AM Subject: RE: soy research link >> Any of you know anything about this study?

I agree, the more I read of " scientific " studies and their interpretations, the more I realize how subjective they are. > but in the end you > just have to settle on the one that YOUR body tells > you is best for YOU. > I know when I have the most energy and the fewest > health problems > because my body tells me so. And vegetarian or > semi-vegetarian diets > just don't cut it for me! They exacerbate my low > blood sugar problems Ditto. My energy levels are much more consistent on this kind of diet, with animal protein and fat. And I have less body fat than when I ate refined carbs, with no appreciable difference in my activity level. Every holiday visitor we've had has brought some kind of sugary stuff or crunchy snack, and left it here. As soon as this batch of visitors leaves (in-laws), I'm going to pitch it all in the garbage. My in-laws (who have been impervious to our efforts to improve their diets) brought a big box full of commercial baked goods. I was reading the ingredients, and the first three listed on all except a loaf of sourdough were white flour, sugar and partially hydrogenated soybean or cottonseed oil, then a long list of preservatives, artificial flavors, etc. I wonder if they notice we're not eating it.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2002 Report Share Posted January 7, 2002 I don't see how it can be a question of what do the " experts " know. If something is inherently bad for the body then what's the argument? I did not see the post on soy, but question who did the research. Research does not " prove " one way or the other if it is not conducted well and/or interpreted with underlying bias. Re-reading the original research on the Framington study about fat and heart disease is an excellent example of how things get skewed for no reason at all. Finally, there is enough research from the Weston A Price organization to refute any positive claims regarding soy. anne > Hi all- > I just posted a link to an article that supposedly > shows that people fed soy formula as infants have no > long-term health problems.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2002 Report Share Posted January 7, 2002 Almost any study can be set up to " prove " whatever its authors want it to prove. If the results should not be " satisfactory " no one hears about it. The Framingham Study, the darling of the medical establishment, could not show any link between the cholesterol in the diet and the cholesterol in the blood. In fact one of the directors stated that the more meat and cholesterol people ate the healthier they were.
