Too much soy will give you man-boobs.

But, you might not have much of a choice.

Soy milk is just disgusting.

Unless it is for straight drinking, milk can usually be substituted with various blends of flours and water.

Rice Dream Rice milk tastes very close to skim milk. Also, chocolate soy milk is usually pretty good. I am lactose intolerant and usually just go for the rice milk with my cereal.

If you are a pre pubescent boy and downing 20-25 liters of the stuff then yes.

Soy isn't as bad as it is portrayed to be when it is used in moderation and it won't cause gynecomastia (the body actually regulates this, however, more estrogen in your system means less testosterone until the balance is regained, no fun for a man)

For cereal, skim milk is all I do. For drinking however, chocalate soy is pretty damn good. I might give rice milk a try some time.

There's dozens of different soymilks too, ranging from pseudo-skim to the thick homo-like stuff.

I like the skim-alternative. :) Rice milk is pretty good too... they're good enough to just drink.

And it's way healthier than milk is... the whole "drink milk" engine is cash-generating lies. While there is calcium in dairy products, the milk protiens actually leach some calcium from your system as well as prevent the dairy's calcium from being absorbed.

Ostioperosis is almost non-existant in non-dairy consuming cultures, and rampant in our consumer-based corporate "got milk?" world. Go figure. :roll:

Eat your dark green veggies and some almonds and you'll get all the calcium you need, without the fat.


That said, a little bit of cheese or ice cream is nice to have, but in VERY limited quantities... The ol' metabolism is slowing down since I hit 30 and got a crappy, sedentary job.
