Soy Free Proteins?

[Indianpower]

Ok i was just curious as to why Truenutrition is producing so many new proteins that are soy free? Is soy a bad protein source? And how much soy and egg protein should you put in a custom mix?

I think many folks are avoid soy due to a lot of it being GMO and the fear that it reduces testosterone and/or promotes estrogen in the male body.

I just use TN's Mega Mix formula and am loving it :-)

I get it you love the mega mix! lol..What i was trying to find out was mainly the deal on soy free proteins why they're coming out with more of them. I wanna make sure if soy is not a good protein source, even though it has >90 percent protein and gives 27g protein in a 30g serving, to not take in very much.

Do some research into soy man. I have been avoiding it since I was a kid when I read an article regarding soy's inhibition of trypsin and a whole host of other bad shit. It's pretty pointless consuming high quality protein if you can't efficiently cleave peptide chains!
Unless of course it's already been done for you. Lol.

Are they actually soy-free? It's almost universal for protein powders to use soy lecithin as an emulsifier.
