There are so many people in my life that when I tell them I'm vegan they freak out and ask if I'm eating soy. "Oh, that shit will give you cancer." "Don't eat too much soy it will mess with your estrogen and give you ovary cancer" and so on.

I always thought that soy had been proven safe? Like it's plant estrogen, our bodies don't absorb it, right?

What do I say to these kinds of people? I like tofu :vegan-tofu:

Edit: Thanks for the info folks, you rule. :bean:
