If you look inside my medicine cabinet, you will see why Big Pharma might broke with too many guys like me around. The big pharmaceutical companies have to hate guys like me. Let me explain.

- Soy products are safe for consumption.
- Most milk and dairy products are safe, except for sour creams, chocolate milk, non-dairy creamers, and yogurt.
Soy Allergy
