MORE Soy Myths vs. Facts 🌱
Ever heard that soy is bad for you?
Let’s break down the myths and truths:
⠀
🚫 Myth: “Soy is the worst protein for your thyroid and it’s all GMO!” – Not true!
While some worry about soy’s impact on health and its genetic modifications, here’s what you really need to know:
⠀
✅ Fact: Soy is a complete protein, essential for building muscle.
Yes, much of the soy in the U.S. is genetically modified, but primarily that’s the soy used for animal feed, not what ends up in your soy milk or tofu. In fact, the soy products you eat like tofu and soy milk are mostly organic and non-GMO!
⠀
Only a tiny portion of soy is directly consumed by humans, and these products are safe, healthy, and environmentally friendlier options especially when certified organic.
