Question #41: can a person consume too much soy protein in daily diet? what would adverse effects be?
I've been trying to follow the South Beach Diet
plan, which strictly reduces the amount of sugar
I'm allowing myself. Soy milk and tofu seem to be
good choices for meal supplements, but I'm not
familiar enough with their general effects on the
human system. A package of tofu has "5"
servings, but I am normally using half the package
as part of my meal -- sometimes twice a day. I've
only been doing this for several weeks, so can't
say for sure if it's having any negative effects.
Answer: There is a limit for everything why over dose
yourself.Consult a Doctor.

Today I'm not working out (I work out every other

either at noontime or around 3 in the afternoon..

Question #46: What are the facts on soy protein?
Ive seen some web sites that are really putting
down soy protein supplements saying that it can be
really bad for the body, somehow it doesnt
proccess it or something, then I got thinking is
it a ploy by meat industry? What do you think?
Answer: More than likely, because vegetarians have been
eating it for years, even centuries. It's a
natural source. Also, many sites for athletes
support soy protein over whey protein as
supplemental protein due to the manner in which it
absorbs in the body, as well as all the other
healthy advantages not found in whey.

Question #47: Should men use Soy protein for weight training?
I used to use Soy protein to substitute for whey,
but I thought I noticed less "pump"
after workouts and also my sexual drive seemed to
decrease. I suspect plant estrogens may be to
blame, but I'm not a specialist. Can anyone cast
any light onto this?

Soy is not a health food.

Question #48: I heard using soy protein instead of a whey supplement has a side effect of breasts in men, any truth in that?
I use protein supplement when I lift and workout.
I, by chance, have always used whey protein. A
buddy of ours once bought soy and this was
questioned by others we lifted with. Is there any
clinical findings or truth to this, and is there a
benefit to one over the other?
Answer: You should research soy. A real hustle was worked
on the American public by the soybean interests.
I'm not conversant in the chemistry of it, but its
worth you and your buds looking into.

Question #49: Is soy protein as effective as whey protein for muscle gains?
I've read around the internet and it's been pretty
much conclusive by the experts that whey is much
more effective, but I've made really nice gains
when using soy isolate protein.(The key is the soy
ISOLATE instead of regular soy protein, which
supposedly increases estogen levels.)Am I right?
Cause it's much cheaper and it seems to work.I've
never tried whey because I am concerned about the
cholesterol it contains (soy has none).I need help
people.
Answer: in fact soy contains more protein than most lean
meats..not to mention alot less fats (doesnt taste
as good, its why i personally prefer meat)ive seen
many buff vegetarians.. if you really want to
build muscles, eat lean meat and soy; the best of
the best!

Question #50: What are the benefits of a soy protein diet or a high protein diet?
Going on a high protein diet or soy protein diet
will it help you lose weight. If so what foods
should i eat on it. And what are other benefits of
going on this diet. Im trying to lose 40 pounds.
Answer: One of the best benifits is protecting your muscle
and organs. If you do it wright it will slow down
your inslin production and slow down sugar
cravings. I would suggest taking a multivitamin to
help you get the other nutrition that you might be
lacking. It really depends on the company and the
quality of of the protein.Hope these links might
