In Michael Pollan's book "In Defense of Food" he states that the FDA has not given soy foods GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) status. He spoke with an FDA researcher who says that the health claims made by the soy industry isn't backed by any hard evidence.

If you really stop and think about it, what IS good for us?? Regular milk has hormones, casein and parasites. Now they say soy is bad and organic is a killer!! Assuming all of this true, and I'm not saying it is, why not just eat what makes you happy?? If everything we eat is tainted in some way, eat what you like, then. I drink soy not because I'm vegetarian, dieting or even vegan. I drink it because...I like it!!

skim milk is for homos.

Cow milk,

soy milk is NASTY

P.S. I don't have farting problems

[NewHealthyAttitude]

Soy is a hormone disruptor and for someone that young it's definitely not good.

Over 95% of our soy is genetically modified in the US and when studies were done on newborn mice, in 3 weeks...50% of them were dead. Learn more on these two sites.

Is it true that SOY MILK contains twice as much IGF-1 (Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1)

in every 40 grams of protein compared to the standard milk protein from cows???

I heard that EVERY 40 grams of ISOLATED SOY PROTEIN increases your IGF-1 levels by 69%!!

I'll drink SOY MILK for the rest of my life if that's true!!!

I drank soy chocolate milk for the first time today and aside from the minor after-taste it tastes exactly the same as chocolate milk to me...Vegan people need way better representation.

I am not vegan or vegetarian but I definitely wouldn't mind moving to soy milk, but people made it sound so disgusting before I tried it, and the extreme advertising by PETA doesn't help their case either....

Well go ahead and be a cow. You probably have a thing for phallic shaped tits

and if so a cow is exactly what you need. Maybe you need all the antibiotics and hormones

they are fed to squeeze more milk out of them. But while you'd rather be a cow you must remember where ALL of them end up sooner or later. Old milk cows end up being hamburger. I'll stay with soymilk.

Cow's milk is exactely what it is. We all know U R what you eat. Want to look like a cow? Keep drinking that polluted stuff.

I have sports injuries. (Football and motocross) cows milk kept my injury joints hurting like a SOB. I switched to ice cold soymilk (i like vanilla) guess what no more joints hurting like a SOB. Will never drink cow's milk again. Know some one that farts alot? Bet they drink a lot of cow's milk. Nothing farts more than cows.

Except your mother in law maybe. LOL

My family drinks blue top cow's milk, I feel ashamed of them every time they buy the stuff.

It has less than half the calcium of my soy milk, twice the fat, and cholesterol (soy milk has none).

Of course I buy "essential" soy milk which contains lots of Omega 3 and vitamins.

I would also recommend rice milk. To anyone who says soy milk isn't actually a MILK, the term "milk" doesn't mean it has to come from an animal.

Soy milk is the best milk ever made

[lilbeani121]

i love my silk chocolate soy milk i throw some of my protein powder in there every morning for an extra protein boost since i am, infact, vegitarian AND lactose intolerant. isnt that just splendid? yeah so. i love my soy chocolate milk :D

silk has a chai soy milk too. theres also another brand that it comes in a little bottle that you can probably drink up within 3 days. its pretty good. uhm. i cant remember what brand it was though.

[WeWishWeKnew]

wouldnt that make you vegan

[lilbeani121]

nah, because i still indulge in dairy queen and pizza... even tho its like someone taking a knife and stabbing at my stomach XD

and vegans are vegitarians who dont eat anythingggg that comes from an animal. so like.. vegitarians will eat eggs, where vegans wont, because it came from a chicken.

[lbg77giggles]

lol funny, vanilla flavored eggs :)

I buy lots of soy milk when it's on sale since it store longer then cows milk, but on the down side, it also has to be drank up sooner then cows milk once it's open.

[monkeyman522]

I just started using soy milk over the regular stuff and love it. You're right, vanilla or chocolate flavor makes it more palatable but only if you're using it straight. I find having a bottle of non-flavored soy milk is good for cooking. Trust me, vanilla flavored scrambled eggs are strange.

Soy milk also keeps about three times longer than cow milk so there's some savings there.
