Is Soy Safe? Exploring the Science & Debunking Myths

Also soy is subsidized heavily by the US government.

[@spshreyas9585]

Why everyone give half information Why can't people make thier own research Being lazy even if it comes to your health, Soy is suitable for all western countries Not for Indian weather 🌡️ this was originally for feeding pigs. Say this also in your history analisis. Now West wants you to eat the pig food because it's grown in their country. Stick to Indian origin Indigenous foods Trust no articles as evrything is written with hidden agendas Also when our farmers grow this soy It absorbs for nutrients to grow making our agricultural land less fertile in just one crop output. Tell this Also You are making Indian land less fertile Stop listening to nonsense And just do ur own research

Thanks for this video. I was waiting for this for long. In addition to the benifits you told, it is the cheapest source of protein for us Indian. 1 kg Soya Chunk costs around 150-160 rs in local market which has almost 450-500 grams of protein. So it is much cheaper than other proteins sources. But sometimes it causes bloating, gas formation etc.

@krishashok I agree with almost everything you said in the video. However, I've been a vegan for over 30 years. I've gone through long stretches of time without using soy. Vegan diets without soy are practical, contrary to your claim at the end. Thank you for the otherwise informative and useful video.

Impractical on average. Anecdotally, every combination of diet is technically feasible 😊

Absolutely love the direction your channel is taking Krish. KZbin has been around for decades, and you have still managed to find a niche for high quality content. So fun watching your videos. You failed to mention that soy chunks and soymilk fall under ultra processed foods, which are problematic in their own right.

[@krishashok]

Not necessarily. People use the word ultraprocessed without bothering to ask the next question - what is being added or removed?

[@ispeakforthebeans]

@@krishashok Ultra processing is not about the changing of macros, in essence it is about the breakdown of food into its fundamental blocks, stripping away the nutrients and the usage of industrial chemicals and processes that have little to no long term study data. Im not good at explaining but there is a lot of research into why ultra processing of food is harmful, read up on it.

As such, is it possible for food that maybe highly nutrious to become less effective if one carried some kind of a toxic poisonous mind.

[@JoelBergling-vn9qi]

Shouldn't soy be consumed only if fermented and if not , in very little quantity (like tofu). South East Asian countries have been consuming soy since thousands of years yet they never use soy chunks or soy flour (even to this day) primarily, because it's very taxing on the digestive system if unfermented. In Manipur and other North-eastern Indian states soy is consumed only in it's fermented form too. Studies have also shown thyroid disruption and nephrotoxicity from soy consumption. Would like to know your take on this.

[@RizwanMuzzammil]

In the book "Sacred Cow - The Case for Better Meat" is the following section: "THE PROBLEMS WITH SOY Soy is one of the few plant foods that provides all nine essential amino acids, so it is often promoted as an amazing alternative to meat. But there is a troubling amount of research linking soy to digestive problems,reproductive issues, and cognitive decline. A big reason soy intake is subject to so much research and controversy is because soy is high in anti-nutrients, particularly isoflavones. These plant compounds are similar to estrogen and are used by the soy plant as a natural defense, disrupting the reproductive cycle of livestock that eat it.15 Some research has suggested that isoflavones could result in a disruption in fertility, hormone balance, and thyroid function in humans.16 How these compounds behave in the body is complicated, and it's beyond the scope of this book to fully dive into all the research on soy-thousands of studies have investigated it. But we think there are a couple things to keep in mind. Traditional cultures that consume a lot of soy-based products tend to ferment or prepare the soy in a manner that reduces the content of the anti-nutrients, reducing the risk of toxicity. But in most Western societies we consume soy in the form of soybean oil, soy protein isolate (a highly processed, high-protein powder),or as soy lecithin (a combination of soybean oil and phospholipids). We have already addressed how soybean oil is high omega-6 fats, further skewing the ratio between essential fatty acids. Soy products consumed in this highly processed form can be problematic for health. People with allergies to soy can be triggered by soy lecithin, which is hidden in foods as a common emulsifier. Soy lecithin may also impair cognitive function and impact brain chemistry.18 Given that research has raised troubling questions about how safe soy is, we think meat is a superior option; it offers much more nutrition for the calories. Our take is that soy should be limited or avoided in the diet, especially in the forms commonly found in processed and packaged foods." Is there merit in this? There are some numbered references which I could post up if needed.

[@archisman_ghosh]

People with allergy to soy should avoid soy products and limit intake of products which may contain soy lecithin as emulsifier. Otherwise people not allergic to soy should definitely consume soy products, preferably fermented. Whole soy and soy chunks definitely contain trypsin inhibitors like Kunitz inhibitor and Bowman-Birk inhibitor, some of which are heat resistant. Boiling does inactivate the inhibitors to a large extent but also causes loss of water soluble vitamins and denaturation of proteins. Soybean oil on another note should be definitely avoided as it undergoes an extensive refining process during production.

[@venky1973]

All the knowledge and information for us the lower mortals. Thanks.

[@ARCPA1040]

Interesting historical facts! More than one endocrinologist I have met has recommended reduced consumption due to my hypothyroidism, since soybean, in addition to cabbage, etc. is supposed to reduce the absorption of the thyroxin from medication. @krish Ashok, could you please throw more light on the impact on hypothyroidism.

It feels boring because tofu has a very neutral flavour and really bland. If you marinate it and air fry. Them and then put them in curry, they will soak up all the flavours. Soy chunks on the other hand suck. I prefer chaap.

[@vaishaliphadke]

Soya chunks are the remnants while making soya milk. So is there any protein left in that? Or the protein gets divided between soya leftover and soya milk? Then what is the better source of protein, soya milk or soya chunks?

[@krishashok]

Soy chunks are remnants from oil extraction, not milk extraction. They are 50% protein on a dry matter weight basis

[@Pavankumarr.]

​​@@krishashok means if I consume 100gms of soya chunks it gets absorbed about 25gms protein where the brands mention 52gms info?
