Soya milk.

Can anybody help with this question.
Soya milk. Is it ok to take soya milk. Is there any indication about drinking soya milk and cancer.
Thanks.

Hi Steven,

I think there is some research that points to uncultured soy being of no nutritional benefit (or even worse). I have read that it is not good to include soy if you have thyroid problems as it can worsen symptoms caused by an underactive thyroid. Also there may be problems with certain types of hormonal treatments for types of breast cancer. It seems that cultured soy is not thought to be harmful.
Best do some research...
