Like lemmings...<br /><br />I believe that not only is soy overrated - it is the kiss of death for people with thyroid issues. It's a goitregen and blocks the thyroid from using iodine to make T4. That and its abundance of phyto-estrogens can really whack a person's body out. Not what any one needs when they're trying to be fit, healthy and sane.Another Day in Limbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06406276226035483022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36941791.post-81440422376144953232009-07-15T21:49:42.850+01:002009-07-15T21:49:42.850+01:00Hi Jami

I t...Hi Jami<br /><br />You know, I agree with you here too!<br /><br />I think soy is super over-rated as a health food. Esp here in the west. In Asia fermented soy is pretty decent stuff (or so I hear) but the west...<br /><br />Personally, I'd never touch soy in anything other than a miso soup as I can't stand the 'fake meat' that veggies seem to enjoy so much.<br /><br />Yuk!<br /><br />I'm off for a burger : )<br /><br />DaxDaxMoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05348257790287284390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36941791.post-12127844888563093352009-07-15T21:47:09.928+01:002009-07-15T21:47:09.928+01:00Hi Glynis

After all, trainers gotta eat too : )<br /><br />I'm with you on the chicken and steak! : )<br /><br />DaxDaxMoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05348257790287284390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36941791.post-11826046271093979242009-07-15T21:34:35.865+01:002009-07-15T21:34:35.865+01:00I was really excited to read her meal plans and ha...I was really excited to read her meal plans and had been waiting on them for a while through Craig's website. However I was pretty disappointed when getting them because the majority of the protein sources are coming from soy based products. While I do believe these are ok in limited amounts, getting more than 1 serving per day I believe is unhealthy. So I am back to the drawing board in looking for healthy vegetarian meal plans!Jamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03463830545280451006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36941791.post-58803827329055370372009-07-15T21:32:35.618+01:002009-07-15T21:32:35.618+01:00I'm pretty tired of the whole thing where Crai...I'm pretty tired of the whole thing where Craig Ballantyne is pushing his vegetarian experiment -- and John Berardi did one before that. As far as I can see, it's just part of "how to make more money" for Turbulence Training and Precision Nutrition... "I know, let's target vegetarians!"<br /><br />There is nothing *easy* about those meal plans. Nothing at all. Looks like a royal pain in the ... They're certainly not friendly for people with food allergies. If you're allergic to nuts, you're screwed. <br /><br />Vegetarian diets are notoriously lacking in Vitamin D and B-12. Even Ghandi, after promoting vegetarianism, came to include that animal products were necessary for human health. <br /><br />Iron, zinc, phosphorus, sodium & potassium are generally low in hair analysis of vegetarians -- and apparently adrenal burnout can occur with these deficiencies. Add that to the elevated copper levels... yikes. <br /><br />Anyhow, this is one fad that I have no intention of jumping after. While I may not really like steak, I love my chicken!Another Day in Limbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06406276226035483022noreply@blogger.com
