I haven’t heard of soy bean problems /‘d CLL. I would think that Tofu and some soy products are a decent source of protein and iron.
Our alternative doctor wasn’t worried about soy unless someone has breast cancer. When reading ingredients soy is in everything so I was relieved to hear that
we didn’t need to worry.
Hi Vog, I am on imbruvica (5+ years) and eat soy on an average of 4-5 times a week and have never had more than occasional gas as the only problem. I think it is a great protein source and an alternative to meat.
