Should soy products be avoided for estrogen + cancer
I am vegetarian and I am wondering about including tofu in my diet. A quick google has me confused. Is it safe to eat in moderation? Thanking you in anticipation

@Vangirl I am arimidex for ten years. I am finding ways of managing most of the side effects, its the fatigue which I find the hardest. It is so frustrating.
Thank you @primek that is the problem, confusing and contradicting statements and reports. 'While soy foods may have a protective effect, there is also some evidence that phyto-oestrogens might stimulate the growth of existing hormone-dependent cancers.'
I think I will take the advice from the blog post 'So, go ahead and order up your favorite spicy tofu dish without concerns that it may put you at risk of anything more than indigestion.'
