The Harvard food plate recommends limiting milk and dairy to one to two servings per day, as opposed to the US government food plate, which recommends dairy three times a day. You create a lot of internet volume to hide the truth, they both recommend dairy.
OK, US gov plate is different. So let's say how different.

So, first, the protein does not even take one quarter of the plate. What does count as protein?
"All foods made from meat, poultry, seafood, beans and peas, eggs, processed soy products, nuts, and seeds are considered part of the Protein Foods Group."
So, if US guidelines is be all end all for you, you agree that soy products are fine. Good to know

Nope, it's as fresh as it can. You have no idea what you are talking about. As little as possible is the recommendation.

Nope, it recommends protein foods, including beans, peas and processed soy products. I am glad that you promote eating soy too

Do you know what does positive association mean? It means that when one value increases, so does the other. Eating meat was positively associated with BMI and waist circumference, which means that the more meat one ate, the higher BMI and waist circumference were.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, my dick falls off too. Regularly. Even if I was emotional, at least I am not liar or a moron.

Also, if this was true then we would see problems with test and obesity among people consuming a lot of soy products. It is not the case. Here is the meta-analysis:

Excerpt from the abstract:
"No significant effects of soy protein or isoflavone intake on T, SHBG, free T, or FAI were detected regardless of statistical model."
Also also, vegans are basically the only US pop group that has a weight in the healthy BMI range. Pff.

Nonsense, as demonstrated above.

The phobic fear of soy, nonsensical beliefs that it works like hormone replacement therapy and that it is a cause of all plagues known to men is. Stop being ridiculous.
