Is Consumption Of Soy Milk Safe?
Question: I switched from drinking milk to drinking soy milk for 2 month now after I have read articles that milk after a certain age is unhealthy and causes mucus in the body which cause cancer cells and the adult body doesn't need the calcium anymore. I needed another healthy drink to mix my whey protein with so I chose soy milk as it has more protein. Recently I read many articles about how bad soy milk is for men as it increases the female hermon in men causing bad XXXXXXX effects like breastfeeding enlargement and loosing sextual desire. I need a professional advice from a doctor about this. Should I mix my whey protein with soy or normal milk? Thank you

Thank you for asking
I am sorry to say but you are the most misguided person I have ever met.
Burn those articles you read. They are no less than a blasphemy.
Who told you milk causes cancer and is not needed after some age.
Who told you human body does not need calcium any more.
Soy milk is perfectly Safe and an alternative to people who can't digest normal milk.isncommonly used for lactose intolerance.soy itself has uses like for menopause, increasing bone mineral density , hyperlipidemias, hot flashes of menopause and reducing risks for developing breast cancer.
There are no such adverse effects like female hormones predominance or breast enlargement they are just a propaganda.
Constipation nausea and bloating are some of its adverse effects if used excessively like any other milk and allergic reactions in some cases.
Don't get your self in trouble by reading such crap.use authenticated self education portals only like web md. Etc.
I hope you see it in a right perspective. Take good care of yourself and don't forget to close the discussion please.
May the odds be ever in your favour.
