Here is a warning to avoid the following if made in the United States: cheap bread, dipping

There is some debate over whether an increase in estrogen can benefit women (pro and contra), but for men the verdict is bad overall:
Moreover, because soy/corn grow resistant to glyphosate, soy/corn have been genetically modified to withstand increasingly larger doses.
