I have done a lot of research on soy and found scientific studies that show
that in large doses it has been known to supress the immune system of some
people.  Both of my doctors also believe it was the cause of my supressed
immune system.  I really don't want to have to defend my statement in regard
to how soy affected me.  I believe soy was the cause.  My doctors believe soy
was the cause.  You don't have to agree.
