On Soy Myths and truths

2018-08-09 16:01:39
Does Soy really gives estrogen and decrease testosterone? Does it really leads to erectile disfunction and breast cancer? I have seen Vegan websites calling it absolutely false on recent year studies while some websites saying it actually does gives those symptoms. So who to believe and on what grounds.
