#3  Both tofu and yams are loaded with plant estrogens which are very close to animal estrogen. Importantly, while the consumption of tofu is quite high in Asia, it doesn't present these problems, because most of that consumption is of fermented tofu, which breaks down the estrogen.

And interesting comparison can be made with the hazards of milk products. When fermented into cheese, they also chemically change, and become much more heart healthy.

#2  I prefer meat to almost any other foodstuff, but enjoy tofu a lot. It's an absolute must-have for miso soup.
