Soy or no?
by Allison Goines
I give my children soy milk. Soy is a common ingredient in many foods. Check those labels, you’d be shocked.
Cow’s milk isn’t great with the antibiotics and growth hormones and whatnot. My guys drink a cup or two of soy milk per day and even though I know the debate over the potential problems with soy, I choose to continue to use soy milk. I cook and personally drink cow’s milk, but am slowly adding more soy milk into my diet.
What’s your stand on soy?

Personally I think it is much better to use than cow’s milk. I use it for pretty much everything one would normally use cow’s milk for. The main exception being I do use regular cheese. I do not know about trying to add more soy milk on its own to one’s diet, but it is definitely good as a replacer of cow’s milk.

We do soymilk and regular milk. I prefer my son to drink soymilk, but it doesn’t have the fat content needed, we do baby yogurt to help with that. I slip in milk here and there when we are out and about just so that his digestive system becomes used to it. I don’t want him to be “that boy” who can’t drink milk. Also, we do the Silk Enhanced because it has Omega 3s via flax oil in it.
