Lots of information.

I was pleased with this book. I've been a vegetarian for about a year and I wanted to know if I was getting the right amount of protein in my diet. Now I have a thorough understanding of soy, its pros and cons. I passed the book along to my daughter.

Soy Smart Health: for women & men

Hi, This is an interesting book. However they should have spent a bit more time editing the text... as there are plenty of opportunities for laying it out better or expressing ideas more clearly (expected more from a bunch of PH.D's): They tend to repeat themselves a lot in rapid succession. The book explains the different effects of phyto-estrogens & estrogens very well but they miss the opportunity to tie this in with xeno-estrogens neatly. This information is very relevant to women with breast cancer who want to know whether or not Soy phyto-estrogens will make things better or worst. It also relevant to women with Estrogen Dominance Syndrome that might be suffering from Endometriosis: You gain a whole new respect and understanding for the balancing role of progesterone. It even has a few negative things to say about Soy oil (Omega 6 oils). The book is not just for women... although the author certainly gives this impression. To balance it up a bit they could have added a section on men... as men too can have high estrogen levels (from xenoestrogens). However the devil is in the detail with most things... soy as well... and it seems like there's still a bit more they need to explain... and which remains unexplained in this book. You may not be convinced but you will be better informed by the end of this book. :-)

The best soy book I've seen.

Soy Smart Health is the best book on soy I've seen so far. Solomon et al have explored areas of soy health benefits I haven't ever considered. Their research is complete and current, with citations as recent as March 2000. This book is definitely one of the best purchases I've made this year. All of my friends have one now.
