I avoided soy & soy products, but still got breast cancer twice. Turns out, I have PALB1&2 gene (related to BRCA), as well as triple negative receptors.

Guess I could have had soy anyway.

If positive estrogen, probably would steer clear of soy products.

There are still ongoing studies about soy & breast cancer, but I believe no one really knows the answer.
