This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

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.

This leeching effect is not true. It's a myth spread by alt-health providers.

I think your initial claim of cow’s milk leeching calcium has the burden of proof and so needs a source.

Otherwise, it’s proving a negative (that cow’s milk doesn’t leech calcium).

You're right. After looking it up it seems like I've had some bad intel.

I've corrected my previous post.
