06/09/2010 - New Research: Soy Formula Affects Reproductive Development in Mice
by Dr. Edward Group
You might already know that I’m not a big fan of certain non-fermented soy products. The results of a newly published study on the effects of soy formula on the reproductive systems of mice only underscores how bad they can be for the body.
