This guy gave a speech in class today about soy milk and mentioned that it blocks DHT and helps prevents male pattern baldness. He says "so if you want hair.. drink soy milk"

anyone on this? I wanted to go to the store and stock up.

you know the drill by now!!!!!

how much, how often, what kind of soy and so on.

it's not that the base fact is not true, but it is a long long long journey from the fact that soy can inhibit DHT to soy saving your hair.

Siiiiiiiiiigh.

Its a biproduct of digested soy in the intestines that has been found to do this.

drinking soy will not help stop hair loss.

Its like squeezing a drop of water out of a dry sponge.

i agree, drinking a glass of soy milk a day wont do much...actuall anything, but adding soy to an existing diet which is designed to help with your hairloss treatment may help.

honestly ... i dont really like this type of thinking.

Its misleading.

Its like you're trying to clog Niagara Falls. Propecia lays down one huge boulder blocking 73% of it. Drinking a glass of soy is like setting a pebble on top of the boulder and saying that its helping ... right before it rolls off and falls in the water.

NO

Soy raises estrogen levels and feminizes you.

Screw that sh*t.

also -- beware of soy!

i used to eat and drink soy by the pound. soy cheese, soy milk, tofu, soy protein powder, soy meatballs, soy everything...

do a google search for the 'dangers of soy'. it seems, despite popular notions of its healthiness, that soy can cause some rather unpleasant effects on the brain later in life.

i made the switch to rice products...
