Click bait. Yeah I know. Look at this article though.



Soy has a shadier side, too — most notably regarding the effect it may have on your hormones. That's because soy contains isoflavones — a type of phytoestrogren that mimics the effect of estrogen on the body.

...soy is even more estrogenic than BPA, according to a review of research on the pros and cons of phytoestrogens by Patisaul and her team.

I can deal without soy, this is the one that kills me!

Exercpt:

Well, if you are a man with low testosterone and want to know the cause, you might not like some of the reasons. Beer, according to recent research, might be one of the biggest culprits. That’s right, the manliest of man drinks; that nectar of the gods, may actually be lowering testosterone and increasing estrogen in the male population.

Wow! The article that you posted actually says:

"Soy and beer have a negative effect on testosterone levels because of the way the body breaks them down and what exists within the byproducts. Soy has estrogen in it, everyone seems to know that now; however, beer does too. It’s the hops. Those flavorful little hops might be a bigger reason for the development of Low T in males than we originally thought."

Well thats the reason why you never see James Bond with a beer.

I agree. Didn't read the article, but I was Vegan for months and dropped the Soy because of what I saw. I also don't drink beer....Heard that too.

On another note, I did read that women who drink beer (or maybe like the taste of beer) are more likely to have sex on the first date.

Flax seed/oil is even worse from what I've read. Awful stuff -

Here's the phytoestrogen content per 100g/4oz serving of soy and flax:

Flax seed 379,380 mcg
Soy beans 103,920 mcg
Tofu 27,150 mcg

You're just looking at the tip of the iceberg..........T in males is plummeting and estrogen is the new designer toxin.

Not to mention sperm count in the west :



Ever noticed how transgenders started popping up over the last 10 years............this is only the beginning.

From the future.......

"Any signs of poisoning?"

"Uh.......not that I recall. Oh, except a bunch of dudes who wanted to cut their d*cks off..........."

"WTF???"

Hidden in plain sight.

Yesterday I saw the new X-Files episodes, the 4th mentions a covered up conspiracy named soy-bomb, it made me curious.

My suggestions:Eat enough protein (animal protein, 1.4-1.6grams/kg if you are working out, 1.0 if you are not) and work out (bodyweight/lifting weights).Take a multi + extra zinc, perhaps some extra vit D.Eat brocolli and consume 3-5 grams aswhaghanda powder 5 days per week.Lower your sugar intake.All of these increase testosterone directly or indirectly.

How old are you, and what has Boron done for YOU, CP?

Thanks!
