It’s completely wild that people drink cow hormone juice and then think that soy is affecting their hormones.

It’s completely wild that people drink cow hormone juice

Yeah.

[–] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (2 children)

It's completely wild that... Husbandry exists? That we eat other animals? That we rot liquid food to drink it? That we use bacteria to curdle milk?

Hot bean juice!

I'm on your level. People get really weird about milk despite the fact that the majority of people consume animal flesh on a daily basis. Milk is way low on the weird food scale.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

We've been eating animals a few million years longer than drinking their milk. (Lactose intolerance is far more common than generally thought.)

So conservatives are not people, or I misinterpreted your comment?

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Not conservatives, regressives.

how the FUCK do you think babies grow

[–] Overshoot2648@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago (4 children)

The problem is that they give the cows growth hormone and high amounts of estrogen to encourage lactation and it's in the milk. I'm lactose intolerant like half of adults anyway so I do almond milk and olive oil butter personally.

the fda has found no significant difference in milk from cows treated with rBST

source: it came to me in a dream/random food package i read

[–] anivia@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

That doesn't make any sense. Estrogen wouldn't even make a cow produce more milk. Are you confusing Estrogen with Prolactin? (which also isn't given to cows, but would at least have the effect you describe)

[–] jimrob4@midwest.social 0 points 2 months ago

None of those chemicals are allowed to be present in the milk of cows lactating for human consumption. They test the milk for those chemicals at the dairy. If any trace amount is found, the whole tanker is dumped as contaminated.

By drinking human hormone juice and getting their hormones messed with. It’s good and helpful for babies.

[–] Zozano@lemy.lol 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

The really funny thing about this is OP is egregiously wrong.

Soy doesn't contain estrogen, it contains phytoestrogen, which not only doesn't produce any estrogen-like side-effect, but actively prevents our bodies from taking and producing estrogenic hormones.

This is all very ironic, considering drinking ~~excessive~~ cows milk ~~leeches calcium out of our bones and~~ exposes us to a smorgasbord of hormones not designed for humans.

Soy is shit tier anyway, oat milk all the way.

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Doesnt cowmilk also actually have estrogen in it? Making it even more ironic?

Nut milk comes from male cows.

It is a badge i would wear with honor, because soy is awesome and the myth is bullshit.

Cow milk is full of estrogen and growth hormone.

[–] MHanak@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

As far as i know hormone concentration in milk is strictly regulated

See, what his coworkers did was good bullying. Anon learned something and also wasn't fired for whatever skeevy pseudosexual thing he was implying about his coworker, probably over politics. Winning hearts and minds, people.

[–] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's phytoestrogen, dummy Anon.

[–] barsquid@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Fragile bros terrified of phytoestrogen in soy will be chugging dairy milk without a single concern.

All my dairy milk comes from bulls.

Is that why my milk has been so salty recently?

I never know what to make of these posts like this because it seems like Anon is okay with laughing at themselves

[–] quixotic120@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

I moved to a rural area a few years back and there’s a lot of farms here. Thus, many of the people I’ve met are farmers or have worked on farms. After a year or so of asking people what they raise/grow on their farms it finally happened and I met someone who said they grew soybeans. I asked him if he was a soyboy and he was really not amused.

I’m pretty sure he saw it coming too, when he said soybeans I had to have a huge shit eating grin on my face. I was waiting for that day

[–] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

If you let your boss bully you into explaining what a soyboy is, you are in fact a soyboy

[–] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Soy milk sucks, it's probably the worst milk...

Banana milk is the best, followed by: macadamia, coconut, cashew, oat, rice, almond, flax, hemp, and then soy in last place.

[–] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What are you basing any of this on? Sounds like simple opinion and no health facts.

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 1 points 2 months ago

"X sucks" is typically an opinion, yes. I assume this one's about taste

[–] Aeri@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What kind of fuckin idiot thinks that soybeans have synthetic female hormones of a caliber that would feminize you or whatever.

[–] faercol@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago

I know right. If it did, you can be sure trans women would know about it.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Reminds me of the youtuber Jake Tran. Ever since he made that in video about soy milk turning people into soyboys I unsubbed. I feel like he pumped out much better content maybe in his earlier days, but lately, I think it's conservative bs.

[–] DarkSirrush@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago

Its amazing how common that is.

Its almost like they know their views are terrible and hide them until they have built up enough of an audience to get away with voicing said views...
