Is anyone here a vegetarian? I have read about a few top pros in the past that at least stated that they were vegetarian. I have not eaten meat in 8 months and sleep less, work out just as hard, and actually have gained 8lbs since the change (drug free for that time). I am curious about a reoprt that was released about the possibility of estrogen increase due to soy products. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks. IP: Logged |

the kind of estrogens in soy protein are very weak,but have great affinity for estrogen receptor sites,ie bloking estrogen. If you are on a high soy diet this may be part of your gains.Never heard of any bad sides to eating alot of soy or soy isoflavones except soy supposedly causes you to be more prone to excreting protein.Manana...
