In Episode #197, Dr Matthew Nagra shares his evidence-based knowledge on soy and its relationship to cancer and hormones. Soy’s health benefits are hotly contested online, from claims that soy causes cancer to accounts of men experiencing feminisation. There is an array of misinformation and poorly interpreted studies that slander soy, and today Dr Nagra helps clear the confusion on this highly debated topic.
Specifically, we cover what soy is; what phytoestrogens are and their effects on hormones in men and women; soy’s relationship with prostate and breast cancer; the potential effects of soy on infants; claims about the harms of soy; and much more.
Enjoy, friends.
