A healthy dose of sunlight on one's skin (take precaution, of course; don't want to get burned) supplies one with a moderate intake of vitamin D.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-67086417887016695802013-07-04T00:56:30.174-04:002013-07-04T00:56:30.174-04:00Animal milk is rich in Vit D and animal hormones, ...Animal milk is rich in Vit D and animal hormones, which are similar to human hormones. If you take animal milk out of your diet, hormone and Vit D levels will consequently drop. When people switch to soy milk I suppose they ingnorantly assume that the Vit D and proteins of animal milk will somehow enter their system through the atmosphere. Doesn't happen. Whatever is taken out of the diet, must be put back in or you will suffer deficiencies that may lead to illness or other complications. Soy milk is low in Vit D and does not contain animal proteins because it is a PLANT. These things must be accounted for in a balanced diet. You must eat something that containts Vit D or you will begin to experience problems with your bones and even immunity which greatly impacts the function of the thyroid. Soy, instead of animal proteins contains, yes, phyto-estrogen. That is exactly a [sun]Light Hormone. Phyto-estrogens are not bad for you at all, no research indicates such unles consumed in GROSS, and I mean MASSIVE quantities. Phyto-estrogens are found in nearly ALL, if not ALL, plants that require sunlight for chemical processes/cellular metabolism. I have not found any SCIENTIFIC or legitimate medical research that has successfully proven soy to be Bad for you but instead has proven that the benefits of regular milk cannot be replaced by soy milk alone. People switch to soy milk because it offers health benefits when consumed intelligently, in moderation, and as one component of a balanced diet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-80692497184281001362013-03-18T01:52:27.813-04:002013-03-18T01:52:27.813-04:00I think I am just going to continue drinking soy m...I think I am just going to continue drinking soy milk because I like it.

This is not good and gives the body, especially the liver, a lot of unnecessary work.

I use Soy-milk exclusively since I read about all the ill effects caused by humans drinking cow's milk, and the fact that the human being is the only animal that drinks the milk of a different animal species. It is unnatural. Also, that the human being is the only animal that drinks milk after being weaned doesn't seem logical.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5852827703279494520.post-80017649204815035422012-04-13T16:03:45.152-04:002012-04-13T16:03:45.152-04:00Oh my word, with all this information on the inter...Oh my word, with all this information on the internet, it just makes everything so much more confusing?
