If you or your child is allergic to soy

KellyMRocks

Did you go as far as eliminating soy fed chicken/ beef from your diet?

That is not necessary. The protein is processed by the animal's digestive system into amino acids and then incorporated into the animal's cells and proteins. There is not "soy" still sitting around in the animal's muscles that you are eating. you only get chicken or beef antigens.

Thank you! Some ahole o FB told me that it could effect winter through my breastmilk, and im sorry but I can't pay 8$ per pound for chicken that isn't fed soy. None of the soy allergy sites said anything about it either except  to avoid chicken/meat with fillers

I am really trying to think positively about it. This ED is forcing me to clean up my diet, eat only whole foods, etc. So this is a good thing.

Well if you were drinking the blood of the animal I could see a slight chance of exposure to an antigen but in the muscle you should be totally fine! 

KellyMRocks

I totally drink chicken's blood.

Then there is a minuscule chance that some traces of soy protein may enter your digestive tract and an even more minuscule chance that those peptide chains will find their way into your breastmilk. And that would probably be the least of your problems if you were drinking chicken blood Enjoy
