There are many reasons why soy (or wheat or
nuts or high fructose corn syrup, for that matter), can be
allergy inducing as well as elicit fear in some people or institutions: soy is mostly genetically modified now, it is in practically everything - especially processed foods, the body can be overwhelmed
with all the processed junk and then adding a constant supply of GMOs would send any sane
member of our society to duck for cover.
Our family deals
with allergies to gluten,
nuts, dairy, soy, peas, lentils, chickpeas, and (lol) oats, plus one
member has diabetes and is super sensitive to tiny amounts of gluten in processed food labeled «gluten free.»
