Soy And Testosterone Resistance
“What Men Need To Know About SOY And Testosterone Resistance”
Soy has become a very popular protein alternative in recent years & is now a common food additive.
But, this is what you need to know especially if you are male.
Soy promotes what is called testosterone resistance in the body. When you don’t have enough testosterone it can rob you of your sexual desire & energy.
And if you are a body builder, it is difficult to build muscle mass without normal levels of testosterone.
Studies show that soy’s 2 main estrogen-like compounds – genistein and daidzein – create this resistance to testosterone.
They block your sex hormones, called androgens, from reaching their androgen receptors.
In fact, researchers investigating ways of reducing testosterone for prostate cancer patients found a surefire way: soy!
So, how do you avoid the hidden dangers of soy?
Read your labels.
It is best to be aware of how much soy you are consuming.
And remember that it is just not in your food but also on your food.
Those shiny fruits and vegetables you buy are sprayed with a waxy coating which contains soy to thicken the coating so it sticks to the produce.
What to do?
Buy your fruits and veggies form the local farmer’s market.
Remember that you should always eat local which means that if it had to travel more than 100 miles to get to your table, it should not be on your table.
And, whey protein or rice protein are better and much safer protein sources.
