Legal Action On Medical Problems Caused By Soy - Dioxin
Thanks to Cyndy for alerting us regarding the dioxin in our foods, processed or not. It seems to be everywhere, as indicated in her link rich post, and not only in milk as so many of us have been hoodwinked to believe. Is it any wonder that Breast and Prostate Cancer are reaching epidemic proportions?

Subject: November 22/23 Washington DC meeting regarding NAS review of EPA's /exposure & Human Health (Dioxin Reassessment)
..."A growing body of credible medical and dietary research suggests that soy products may cause adverse medical and developmental conditions in susceptible persons, especially children who in some instances may be affected by soy products consumed either by themselves (for instance, in baby formula) or by their mothers prior to giving birth."...

RE: Possible Legal Action On Medical Problems Caused By Soyl
Hi Sally,
A site about Food Technologies 2004 Food Expo made reference to a company Loders Croklaan, "The company is a producer of specialty oils and fats, emulsifiers, ingredient delivery systems, encapsulation, and proteins for the food processing industry." This includes feed for calves, cattle & poultry. They make a powdered calf milk replacement. In their descriptions of feeds it mentions they no longer use paraffin based oils to keep dust down in feeds because of the dioxin scandal. So now they are using soya lecithin to replace it. Below there is an article by the USDA telling food processing plants how to reprocess poultry with high dioxin levels caused by soy feed!
Dr. Mercola's comment is listed below about dioxin being a potent mimic of estrogen, which is a danger of soy, right? I can't get over the relationship between soy and dioxin. So I though somebody from WAPF might be interested in the National Academy of Sciences' meeting on 11/22 & 23 in Washington DC on the subject.
Sounds like there is dioxin in the Roundup you referred to recently. (with potatoes)
Take care,

How might I be exposed to dioxins?
Most of the population has low-level exposure to dioxins. Although dioxin is an environmental contaminant, most dioxin exposure occurs through the diet, with over 95% coming through dietary intake of animal fats (see also F3 and F4). Small amounts of exposure occur from breathing air containing trace amounts of dioxins on particles and in vapor form, from inadvertent ingestion of soil containing dioxins, and from absorption through the skin contacting air, soil, or water containing minute levels.
Dioxin Reassessment, NAS Review Draft
On October 15, 2004, the EPA transmitted to the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) the NAS Review Draft of EPA's Exposure and Human Health Reassessment of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-Dioxin (TCDD) and Related Compounds, in preparation for the first meeting of the NAS panel scheduled for November 22 and 23, 2004, in Washington, DC.
Fats and oils for cattle
Vegetable premix oil and by-pass fats as welcome alternatives to mineral oils.
Mineral oil derivatives (such as paraffin oils) are commonly used to prevent dust formation and inhalation. Mineral oils, however, have a bad image in the animal feed industry. They are indigestible and ultimately end up in the environment. Moreover, they are under fire because of a number of dioxin scandals.
Guidance for Reprocessing of Broilers Exposed to Dioxin-Contaminated Feed
The highest reported soy bean meal sample contaminated with dioxins contained 14.68 ppt of 2,3,7,8-TCDD (Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-Dioxin), and had a total toxic equivalency factor (Teq) of 21.75 ppt
It appears as if approximately 50% of the TCDD presented to poultry in feed is actually retained by the birds. The fact that samples of litter from growing houses have been analyzed and found to contain between 2 and 5.9 ppt TCDD strongly suggests that less than 100% of ingested TCDD is retained, but there is insufficient data to determine what percentage is excreted.
One should avoid toxic chemicals like dioxin (a toxic byproduct of chlorine) as it is a potent mimic of estrogen that can cause very serious hormonal disruption. (Dr. Mercola)

I have been using reliv for about 2 1/2 years and have had some improvement in my constipation issues however for over six months after I take the product ( about an hour later) I get a sweet taste in my mouth and cannot figure out why. No one has been able to help me with this. Although my symptoms are better I cannot say that I have gotten to a point where I am satisfied with the results. I take the basic nutrition with fiber store. most recently I started on the simplicity and find the excellerator capsuls have taken me to the next level of relief with my digestion issues.I believe it is the Hoodia ingredient that makes the difference. anyone out there who is not afraid to speak frankly about these products for fear that they may loose their profits. I have been concerned with the soy issue and have asked the question many times but no one responds to the issue.

Hundreds of epidemiological, clinical and laboratory studies link soy to malnutrition,digestive distress, thyroid dysfunction, cognitive decline,reproductive disorders,cognitive,immune system breakdown, and even heart disease and cancer. Contrary to popular belief that soy is a health food, evidence reveals that soy consumption has been linked to numerous disorders. Scientists have known for years that the isoflavones in soy products can depress thyroid function and cause goiters in otherwise healthy children and adults. A combined research team of Cornell University Medical Hospital and Long Island Community Hospital medical experts have found that children who develope Type 1 diabetes are twice as likely to have been fed soy formulas asthose fedall other foods. Kim how long have you been using soysentials? My conditions developed over a period of time. I also have blood work showing my thyroid function as normal before using soy.
