Soy Products and Man Boobs

LaSenza ke tu?
Have you heard people say it's not good for a guy to drink too much soy milk/eat soy products for fear that they will grow man boobs, has erectile dysfunction and become infertile? 

 NO IT IS NOT TRUE.

 Research have shown that taking soy products WILL NOT CAUSE feminization (increase estrogen and reduce testosterone, grow man boobs, reduced fertility).

 The phytoestrogen (that mimics estrogen's effect in the body) is not strong enough to cause this.

 Plus when people say "take too much", exactly how much is too much?

 The health benefits of taking soy far outweigh the perceived disadvantage.

 Here are some facts on soy.
  • Has variety of essential nutrients i.e proteins, fiber, vitamins and minerals, is naturally cholesterol-free, a source for the omega-3 essential fatty acid ALA.

  • contains isoflavones and other antioxidants that are highly beneficial to your health (lowers cholesterol, heart-healthy, helps in post-menopausal symptoms).
    • It contains some estrogen-like compounds (phytoestrogens). Studies showed MODERATE quantities of soy do not significantly affect hormone levels in men. 
    • Some studies have shown that regular intake of soy products can increase breast cancer risks in women. Other studies, however, have found the exact opposite. Soy estrogen can also interfere with breast cancer chemotherapy and medication. If you are a current breast cancer patient or have a history of breast cancer, you should consult with your doctor before drinking soy milk.

    Whatever it is, be moderate. Be smart in choosing your soy milk. Per 250 ml serving, look for 8 to 10 grams of protein. 

     You also should limit refined sugar as flavored soy beverages can have as much as 21 grams of sugar (5 teaspoons worth) per serving.

    Porn Puaka Di Gym

    Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata. Bukan setakat mencuci mata dengan jantan helok (I'm still hoping sebab gym iols pegi tu SENDUU), sis juga suka melihat gegadis yang fefeeling gedik dengan bermacam fesyen di gym tu.

    Indah Khabar Dari Rupa

    "I suka tengok IG si anu anu ni. Selalu share parenting tips. Macam family goal." ujar bawang merah sambil dia scroll instagram sorang public figure Malaysia. "Hah!? Siapa? Si anu tuh? huh!!!! I ban mamat tuh!" sampuk si bawang putih.  Kemudian beberapa bebawang kat situ pun mengiyakan statement maut bawang putih. "Ye ye! I pun ban dia tu! So arrogant. Sombong!" ujar si bawang goreng. Kebanyakkan bawang-bawang ni pernah kerja dalam outlet yang sering dikunjungi oleh si  public figure ni  dan sudah tentu pernah  berhadapan dengan dia.     Semua berkongsi pengalaman yang sama, bahawasanya di public, si figure ni sering bermuka masam dan sombong. Tak pernah nak friendly. Mungkin dia ingat sales staff tak setaraf dengan dia. Bawang putih pulak menyambung "Hipokrit betul. Dalam IG dok share-share parenting tips bagai, tapi realiti 2 orang anak dia tu macam anak setan!" wahh marah betul bawang putih. Nak dijadikan cerita, anak-anak...

    The Beautiful Malacca

    St Paul's Church Malacca is probably my third favourite city. My first time visiting this amazing place was when i was 14 for a youth camp and has been visiting Malacca for countless times now. Day trips with friends or families,countless programs and courses over the years. It's probably that few coins i threw into the old well or an empty tomb on St Paul's Hill. Oh you know what they say about throwing coins and you'll come visit that place again someday. I love the old historical buildings, The Stadhuys, the architecture and colours of the building.  I love the food, the vibrancy of the town.  So the other day, my mum and younger sis was in town and we drove down to Malacca for a day trip.  14 years ago, those tall buildings were not there. It's kinda sad that a historical place like this is surrounded by modern malls and hotels. All in the name of progress i guess. The girl who thinks she is a professional dancer... R...
