Read all of Rutz's columns on soy for the whole story:

There's a slow poison out there that's severely damaging our
children and threatening to tear apart our culture. The ironic part is,
it's a "health food," one of our most popular.
Now, I'm a health-food guy, a fanatic who seldom allows anything into his kitchen unless it's organic. I state my bias here just so you'll know I'm not anti-health food.
The dangerous food I'm speaking of is soy. Soybean products are
feminizing, and they're all over the place. You can hardly escape them
anymore.
I have nothing against an occasional soy snack. Soy is nutritious
and contains lots of good things. Unfortunately, when you eat or drink
a lot of soy stuff, you're also getting substantial quantities of
estrogens.
Estrogens are female hormones.
If you're a woman, you're flooding your system with a substance it
can't handle in surplus. If you're a man, you're suppressing your
masculinity and stimulating your "female side," physically and mentally.
In fetal development,
the default is being female. All humans (even in old age) tend toward
femininity. The main thing that keeps men from diverging into the
female pattern is testosterone, and testosterone is suppressed by an
excess of estrogen.
If you're a grownup, you're already developed, and you're able to
fight off some of the damaging effects of soy. Babies aren't so
fortunate. Research is now showing that when you feed your baby soy
formula, you're giving him or her the equivalent of five birth control pills a day.
A baby's endocrine system just can't cope with that kind of massive
assault, so some damage is inevitable. At the extreme, the damage can
be fatal.
Soy is feminizing, and commonly leads to a decrease in the size of
the penis, sexual confusion and homosexuality. That's why most of the
medical (not socio-spiritual) blame for today's rise in homosexuality
must fall upon the rise in soy formula and other soy products. (Most
babies are bottle-fed during some part of their infancy, and one-fourth
of them are getting soy milk!) Homosexuals often argue that their
homosexuality is inborn because "I can't remember a time when I wasn't
homosexual." No, homosexuality is always deviant. But now many of them
can truthfully say that they can't remember a time when excess estrogen
wasn't influencing them.
Doctors used to hope soy would reduce hot flashes, prevent cancer
and heart disease, and save millions in the Third World from
starvation. That was before they knew much about long-term soy use. Now
we know it's a classic example of a cure that's worse than the disease.
For example, if your baby gets colic from cow's milk, do you switch him
to soy milk? Don't even think about it. His phytoestrogen level will
jump to 20 times normal. If he is a she, brace yourself for watching
her reach menarche as young as seven, robbing her of years of
childhood. If he is a boy, it's far worse: He may not reach puberty
till much later than normal.
Research in 2000 showed that a soy-based diet at any age can lead to a weak thyroid, which commonly produces heart problems and excess fat. Could this explain the dramatic increase in obesity today?
Recent research on rats shows testicular atrophy, infertility and
uterus hypertrophy (enlargement). This helps explain the infertility
epidemic and the sudden growth in fertility clinics. But alas, by the
time a soy-damaged infant has grown to adulthood and wants to marry,
it's too late to get fixed by a fertility clinic.
Worse, there's now scientific evidence that estrogen ingredients in
soy products may be boosting the rapidly rising incidence of leukemia
in children. In the latest year we have numbers for, new cases in the
U.S. jumped 27 percent. In one year!
There's also a serious connection between soy and cancer in adults – especially breast cancer. That's why the governments of Israel, the UK, France and New Zealand are already cracking down hard on soy.
In sad contrast, 60 percent of the refined foods in U.S. supermarkets
now contain soy. Worse, soy use may double in the next few years
because (last I heard) the out-of-touch medicrats in the FDA hierarchy
are considering allowing manufacturers of cereal, energy bars, fake
milk, fake yogurt, etc., to claim that "soy prevents cancer." It
doesn't.
P.S.: Soy sauce is fine. Unlike soy milk, it's perfectly safe
because it's fermented, which changes its molecular structure. Miso,
natto and tempeh are also OK, but avoid tofu.
