Really even with the whole raising estrogen levels in men thing?
It's amazing how easily people buy into this.
If you're worried about estrogen, what the heck do you think cow's milk contains? We're talking about a plant-based chemical far weaker than humanhormones (an estrogen-like compound) versus actual estrogen.
If estrogen has you shook... perhaps drinking milk from a pregnant cow isn't such a great idea. There are phytoestrogens in beer and coffee, too, by theway - just in lower concentrations.
Soy milk isn't going to make you sterile or cause you to grow breasts, especially when you're dealing with 1-2 servings per day of whole soy foods liketofu and soy milk. Soy has been eaten for centuries in many societies, especially fermented soy products, and it's not like they're experiencing massinfertility in China, for example.
Compare the health RISKS of cow's milk with the risk associated with consuming modest amounts of soy. It's not even close.
Personally, I prefer Eden Soy. Silk has a number of issues, summarized here: http://www.cornucopia.org/soysurvey/soy_profiles/FarmID_52.html If you'reconsidering soy milk, it pays to compare. Many are processed using hexane, for example, and are produced using toxic pesticides and genetically modifiedsoybeans. This study offers a quick comparison: http://www.cornucopia.org/soysurvey/
With that said, I don't take soy milk with my protein supplements and I avoid soy protein isolates. For a protein smoothie, I prefer hemp seed protein orpea protein blended with fruit. If you're looking for a milk substitute, though, I'd certainly take a good soy milk over cow's milk any day.
