Not only are whey and soy excluded from many health conscious diets, these protein sources also cause a few potentially dangerous side effects. Some of the negative effects of soy include:
- The FDA estimates that 91% of soy protein is genetically modified.
- Whey protein is a dairy by-product, creating the possibility for people who are allergic to lactose or who are lactose intolerant, to have a negative or allergic reaction.
- Soy can be a highly reactive allergen for some people. If you are allergic to tree nuts, eggs, fish, milk, peanuts, or wheat you may have an allergic reaction to soy.
- Over consumption of whey protein may cause kidney failure and liver failure. People who consistently take in large amounts of soy products may be up to four times more likely to develop problems with cognitive thinking later in life.
- Whey protein is denatured. Whey protein is first pasteurized to a temperature of 180 degrees Fahrenheit and then heated a second time during the cheese making process.
- Soy mimics estrogen in the human body causing a host of dangerous side effects. For women, soy can cause side effects such as hormonal disruption, infertility, and miscarriages. Side effects for men include breast enlargement, decreased libido, moods swings, frequent depression, erectile dysfunction, and lowered sperm count. Diets rich with soy may also prevent muscle growth and development.
- Over consumption of whey protein may cause minerals, including calcium, to be leeched from the bones with the possibility of the development of osteoporosis and gout.
- Soy products may cause certain thyroid hormones to stop working.
