Is it true that some soy products have estrogen in them? Is that bad for us females, or can it help with lake of certain hormones?

I'm curious too Sandra. Thanks for asking this question. Also, I've been researching the whole soy/cancer relation. If anyone has information on this I'd appreciate this too.

I think a lot of the fear has been exaggerated and unjustified. Women with breast cancer or thyroid disorders are told to avoid soy products because of the effects of the estrogen. However, it is heathy for most people. Here is Dr. Fuhrman's take on it: http://www.drfuhrman.com/faq/question.aspx?sid=16&qindex=5
