Hi everyone,
I just read the most recent foods to avoid list and need to clarify if i am understanding the soy stuff. I have been avoiding all soy except occasisional use of one product that has soybean oil. I had also thought that soy sauce was to be avoided and am now wondering if I got that backwards.
So, we can use a little soy sauce, but no soybean oil, or is soybean oil ok too?
Also on one of the past lists, mustard and Hawthorne Berries were to be avoided. It is not on the recent list. Are those now detemined to be ok?
Thanks, Dawn

Hi Dawn,
This link Soy products are immunosuppressive and should be limited suggests limiting rather than eliminating, but I must admit I eliminated soy after reading it!
Mustard, like turmeric and curry powders, contains curcumin, which may have an effect on the immune system. It's okay in the tiny doses most people would use for occasional flavouring.
Hawthorn appears in the Medications to avoid list, as it's thought it might interfere with Benicar.

Why do I have to stop my alternative treatment and avoid most supplements?

Seems this is a thread on foods to avoid, and not a personal thread, so:
Julia, is curcumin in mustard, tumeric, and curry because the curcumin plant was a weed in the fields of these crops, or can we expect to see curcumin on the label of the various powders/prepared items that contain it?
Also, is there any info (maybe ask Dr. Marshall) or logic on the hydrolyzation of soy protein (hydrolyzed soy protein in many products) that might nullify the isoflavones?
Thanks, Cynthia

if this is to be a general food Query thread
I think I heard on radio that kangaroo meat has an unusually high vit.D level considering it is very lean meat
have only eaten it twice, but was excellent in hands of competent chef; the second time I cooked myself and it seemed unpleasantly sweet (I have used no added sugar for decades) I saw a good recipe using red wine. Anything known? _Sallie
