Hi All,
I have just returned to Bodybuilding after a lengthy spell out. I used to be a member on here 2-3 years back but had a car accident and herniated two discs in my neck - was touch and go for a while if I'd ever be able to lift again - got very depressed and couldn't even come on the site...

I keep reading and hearing mixed opinions about soy and Phytoestrogen. So I was wondering if it is bad for you. I love soy and started drinking macadamia milk but it is so expensive. And almond milk sucks
