have just made my first batch of soy milk, and its turned out o.k..
Considering how easy it is if you use a blender, i'm wondering why i didn't do it much earlier. paying 95p a litre for Tescos soya milk is now a thing of the past. it says on their carton: soya beans, water and added flavour. but its quite sweet compared to mine. how do they do that? could added flavour actually include sugar or sweetners, i wonder? my other question is how to stop it, (or at least slow) the blended soy bean and water quickly 'boiling over' when you boil it. it gives practically no warning, just goes up and over in a big rush and i loose nearly half of it. its so time consuming to stand there watching it like a hawk. thanks for any advice. |

Would something else similar in principle work i wonder? |

Soy is deadly poisonous and you shouldn't eat nor drink it. Soy causes thyroid disease and contains large amounts of isoflavones and other dangerous chemicals! http://www.vegetariansareevil.com/soy.html for more info.

Soybeans also contain an anti-nutrient called "phytic acid", which all beans do. However, soybeans have higher levels of phytic acid than any other legume. Phytic acid blocks the absorption of certain minerals, including magnesium, calcium, iron and zinc. Epidemiological studies have shown that people in 3rd World Countries who have high consumption of grains and soy also commonly have deficiencies in these minerals. It must also be noted that this may be of particular concern with regard to babies who are using soy-based infant formulas. Soybeans also contain potent enzyme-inhibitors. These inhibitors block uptake of trypsin and other enzymes which the body needs for protein digestion. Normal cooking does not de-activate these harmful antinutrients, which can cause serious gastric distress, reduced protein digestion and can lead to chronic deficiencies in amino acid uptake. In addition, soybeans also contain hemagglutinin, a clot-promoting substance which causes red blood cells to clump together. These clustered blood cells cannot properly absorb oxygen for distribution to the body's tissues, and are unable to help in maintaining good cardiac health. Hemagglutinin and trypsin inhibitors are both "growth depressant" substances. Although the act of fermenting soybeans does de-activate both hemagglutinin and trypsin inhibitors, cooking and precipitation do not. Although these enzyme inhibitors are found in reduced levels within precipitated soy products like tofu, they are not completely eliminated. Soy starts out poisonous and goes through extensive chemical processing to eliminate as much of these poisons as possible. All of the poisons cannot really be removed in their entirety and virtually none of the hormones and/or hormone-like chemicals (isoflavones) are removed. Soy proponents claim that soy is a staple in Asia. This is simply not true. Soy is merely used as a condiment or seasoning, and even as such it likely contributes to the high level of thyroid disease and thryoid cancer in Asia. Overall consumption of soy in Asia is surprisingly low. The average soy consumption in China is about 10 grams or 2 teaspoons per day. Levels are somewhat higher in Japan, averaging about 50 grams or 1/4 cup per day. In both countries, soy is used as a condiment or flavoring, and not as a substitute for animal foods. Seafood and seaweed in the Japanese diet provide sufficient iodine to counteract the negative effects of the isoflavones in soy. Statistically important is the fact that there are also very high levels of thyroid cancer and thyroid problems in Asia. As early as 1917 researchers noted that soybeans had to be heat-treated in order for soy-fed rats to grow--presumably because soy contains a substance that inhibits digestion. Over the years, scientists have reported other potential problems with soy In this decade two women--Mary G. Enig, Ph.D., a fellow at the American College of Nutrition and a nutritional biochemist in Silver Spring, Md., and Sally W. Fallon, editor of the Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation Journal, which reports on the dietary habits of indigenous peoples--sought to make sense of these studies. In 1995, Enig and Fallon believed they had found enough research to support certain charges against soy, particularly the concerns over thyroid inhibition, protein digestion, and mineral absorption. They wrote an article for the September 1995 issue of Health Freedom News--a publication of the nonprofit health advocacy group called National Health Federation in Monrovia, Calif.--in which they detailed these charges and cited dozens of scientific studies. So, should you eat soy? Should you feed it to your children? It nearly killed the author of this website who consumed large amounts of soy milk daily in lieu of cow's milk due to lactose intolerance. The result: Severe hyperthyroidism which nearly resulted in death from "Thyroid Storm". .. > |
