Ive heard a lot of positive things about tofu, but lately I hear some negative things about soy. What are the facts?
Tofu was one of the first processed foods known to humans. It has been consumed for well over a thousand years. It has stood the test of time and gained a well-deserved reputation in Asian medical and culinary circles. With reports lately about soy’s health benefits, some people believe more of a good thing would be better. Not necessarily so! Many companies are trying to pack higher numbers of soy isoflavones into pricey supplement pills. Some soy research indicates that mega-doses of isoflavones may not be advised. In contrast, the natural “plant estrogen” in soybeans (and thus tofu) is found in small amounts and is quite weak. We believe the best way to get nutrients and sub-nutrients is the natural way – in foods like tofu that have proven safe and effective over centuries of use.
