Should soy products be avoided for estrogen + cancer

I was vegan but ate whatever I wanted during chemo. 

@"Kiwi Angel" had a similar chegan experience during chemo I recall!

I love almond milk @poodlejules!

My 13yo went through aaperiod of being a flexitarian so it all makes sense to me!

Hahaha , a bit of crazy logic there :)

@poodlejules I completely went off fruit and vegetables during chemo and am only just starting to enjoy them again now (1 month post chemo). I lived off pizza, icecream and chips.
I put on 7 or 8 kilos but in my defence I'm building my new boob as I'm having a DIEP flap reconstruction!

@Vangirl Fish in batter was my 'go to' during chemo, and I wasn't turned off it afterwards either. It was funny too, speaking to a relative's boyfriend who underwent chemo when he was a vegetarian, also craved fatty fish and lived on McDonalds 'filet o fish'  :D Taste buds are weird!

@poodlejules don't tell anyone but sometimes I eat fish too :wink:

Hi @Vangirl, my friends call me a 'Chegan' , a cheating vegan (!) as sometimes I crave a piece of fish and can't be bothered asking for no cheese on a veggie pizza! My naturopath advised to limit soy milk ( I drink almond milk.......it really aint that bad! :) ) and I eat tofu about once a fortnight, but try to avoid soy protein isolate which is difficult as it is ,unfortunately, in most processed food, even vegie and vegan products. Good luck with it all! 

Tofu is on the menu tonight.  Not quite sure how I will cook it yet but it will have a nice salad on the side

@Zoffiel @Vangirl I don't care what I eat as long as it tastes good. Can't come at tofu, something about the blandness and the texture. Made a North African-ish vegetable stew tonight which was delicious. New recipe, a keeper. Tomorrow it's tandoori chicken. And on Friday they can all sort themselves out 'cos the cook doesn't work on Fridays. She eats baked beans on toast or somesuch and ignores the whinging as best as she can  :#
