Soy contains trypsin inhibitors that inhibit protein digestion and affect pancreatic function.
Soy contains phytic acid, which reduces absorption of minerals like calcium, magnesium, copper, iron and zinc.
Soy increases our requirement for vitamin D, which 50% of American are already deficient in.
Soy phytoestrogens disrupt endocrine function and have the potential to cause infertility and to promote breast cancer in adult women.
Vitamin B12 analogs in soy are not absorbed and actually increase the body’s requirement for B12.
Processing of soy protein results in the formation of toxic lysinoalanine and highly carcinogenic nitrosamines.
Free glutamic acid or MSG, a potent neurotoxin, is formed during soy food processing and additional amounts are added to many soy foods to mask soy’s unpleasant taste. Soy can stimulate the growth of estrogen-dependent tumors and cause thyroid problems, especially in women.

Saving Food From The Fridge: It Will Taste Better, May Even last Longer, And Reduce Your Energy Bills
Fridges are a recent invention; for thousands of years, people lived without them, but had many low-tech ways of making food last. Today most fridges are filled with stuff that would last just as long and probably would taste a lot better if it was never lost in the back of the fridge. They are expensive air conditioned parking lots for what Shay Salomon called “compost and condiments.” http://www.treehugger.com/kitchen-design/saving-food-fridge-it-will-taste-better-may-even-last-longer-and-reduce-your-energy-bills.html
Can Nutrition Reduce Violence In Prisons?
Encouraging healthier eating could be the government’s secret weapon in the fight against crime, according to experts. A study by researchers at the University of Oxford published in 2002 has found that adding vitamins and other vital nutrients to young people’s diets can cut crime. They found that improving the diets of young offenders at a maximum security institution in Buckinghamshire cut offences by 25%. The study – one of the first to show a scientific link between healthy eating and crime – has now been extended to see if the findings can be applied to the population in general.
Crops being sprayed with MSG, glutamic acid as chemical growth enhancers
Many Natural News readers know of government requirements for irradiating raw almonds and herbs, destroying their nutritional value, under the guise of food safety. This and pasteurizing milk are but two examples of how federal agencies are destroying our food’s nutrition. Not so many health conscious consumers know of crops being sprayed with the essence of MSG, glutamic acid or free glutamates. Emerald BioAgriculture got EPA approval to allow use of their growth enhancer AuxiGro on crops in all states. They are trying to get approval for using AuxiGro on organic crops as well.

Scientists created bird flu superbug that could set off next global pandemic
During roughly the same time period that health experts worldwide have been warning that the infamous H5N1 avian flu virus could soon morph into a highly-transmissible, exceedingly-deadly “super strain” capable of killing millions, scientists from around the world have been exposed deliberately developing such a strain in laboratories. http://www.naturalnews.com/034822_bird_flu_superbug_global_pandemic.html

Another zero-emissions powerplant emerges – the Dearman Engine runs on liquid air
A new zero-emissions engine capable of competing commercially with hydrogen fuel cells and battery electric systems appeared on the radar yesterday when respected British engineering consultancy Ricardo validated Dearman engine technology and its commercial potential. The Dearman engine operates by injecting cryogenic (liquid) air into ambient heat inside the engine to produce high pressure gas that drives the engine – the exhaust emits cold air. It’s cheaper to build than battery electric or fuel cell technology, with excellent energy density, fast refuelling and no range anxiety. http://www.gizmag.com/dearman-zero-emissions-engine/21201/
