The problem with soy is that most products are highly processed derivative forms of the bean, so you consume a lot more of the estrogen-type hormones and nasty compounds. Eating the bean itself (edamame) isn't that bad. The Soy Lobby has turned it into a huge cash crop based on the fact it's extremely cheap and lots of people think it's healthy.
