Soy Milk--Good or Bad

Soy milk is consumed as a nutritious and vegan substitute for milk. With its creamy texture and non-dairy composition, soy milk was created to offer many health benefits such as lowering cholesterol and reducing the risk of cancer. The US government began cultivating soy to feed livestock and to produce raw material such as oil, fuel, and plastic. But soy milk continues to be consumed by lactose intolerant people and by those who wanted a milk substitute. One of the issues with the early production of soy milk was its bitter flavor, which people found unpalatable. 

Later, Vitasoy began selling soy milk in curvy glass bottles like a soft drink served in the additional flavors of chocolate and malt. Once recognized as a profitable product, many companies began selling it. By the 1960s, the quality of soy milk improved drastically as the flavor was altered. By the 1990s, the majority of the population in most countries began acknowledging the health benefits of soy milk, and people began calling it the next superfood. 

As soy milk began to increase in sales, competitors began publicizing that soy contain phytoestrogens, a plant-based molecules similar to estrogen. Men and women began to worry that this would increase their chances of cancer. The presence of phytoestrogens led many to buy alternative nut milks, even though the research showed no way negative effects on either gender. With the rise of veganism, soy milk still remains a popular choice, but not the most popular one.
