When we first started eating soy products we brought it up with our family dr. He said the Asian population (he’s Chinese) has been eating soy for a very long time without adverse effects. The regular North American diet is way more harmful than eating a little soy here and there. 🤦🏻‍♀️

My initial recommendation was not as critical or reserved as this post, but the more research I did, the more I could not recommend soy as a regular food product. Fermented soy seems to be the exception, but this certainly isn't something we consume in large quantities. There are significant concerns to consuming soy as a staple, especially given current agricultural practices and the rates of gender dysphoria we're seeing. I was unable to find research linking soy to this but am curious if there isn't a link since the two seem to coincide. I invite anyone with information on this issue to reach out.

Is it true that anyone can become a nutritionist? Like, I can just say I'm a nutritionist, open a website, and start charging people for advice?
