Daniel (wholesoystory.com), which is a very well referenced book. Q. Please explain what are the problems with soy protein drinks. A. Soy-based liquid protein drinks (and soy protein in general) are high in many toxins and antinutrients. The may also predispose to arrhythmias. The reference for this is: Chiang, CE and others. Genistein Inhibits the Inward Rectifying Potassium Current in Guinea Pig Ventricular Myocytes. J Biomed Sci 2002;9:321-326. Dietary isoflavones genistein dose-dependently and reversibly inhibit the inward rectifying K+ (potassium) current in guinea pigs ventricular myocytes, suggesting the potential for soy isoflavones to cause heart arrhythmias. But supplementation with liquid protein drinks predisposes to arrhythmias. High protein diets that do not contain fats, particularly anim
