With all the misconceptions surrounding the simple soybean, it’s data like this that is hard to ignore – a 2019 systematic review and meta-analysis of 23 prospective studies involving 330,826 people.
The meta-analysis was conducted to look at the association between intakes of soy and risk of mortality from all causes, cancers, and cardiovascular diseases.
The findings?
Soya consumption is INVERSELY associated with deaths from cancer – that is, HIGHER consumption of soya leads to FEWER cancer deaths.
A higher intake of soy was associated with fewer deaths from gastric, colorectal, and lung cancers.
A 10-mg/day increase in intake of soy isoflavones (about 50g tofu) was associated with 7% decreased risk of mortality from all cancers, and each 5g per day of soya protein is associated with TWELVE PERCENT reduction in breast cancer deaths.
The study also found that eating more soya is associated with reduced all cause mortality and deaths from heart disease, ie soya is associated with increased longevity.
As with all foods, remember to eat organic and minimally processed (eg edamame beans and tofu).
It says "HIGHER consumption of soya leads to FEWER cancer deaths". I would assume that it means cancer as a group, without singling out specific cancers.
I had no more that a skim read as I am intolerant to soya (bring on the wheat, gluten, dairy and egg). In the first line of the conclusion it days "may favorably influence risk of mortality". So I will not worry I cannot eat it!

I just realised this morning that my guts are feeling much better. The reason may be that I haven't had any bread for a few days. I am going to do some experiments on myself to see if bread is causing gut issues.
It’s not necessarily the wheat in the bread that causes the problem. I find if I buy supermarket bread it seriously affects my digestion. I baked all my own bread now and have no problems. If you don’t bake bread then buy the artisan sourdoughs. They’re more expensive but don’t contain any chemicals or preservatives.
I had 4 slices of "supermarket" wholemeal bread yesterday and within an hour I was farting a lot. I thought that the wind was due to being vegan but apparently not. Problem is that I love bread and generally eat a lot of it. Downer! I will try wraps today.
