There’s a response on Dr. Joel Fuhrman’s blog Disease Proof to the study that links soy and infertility that we discussed in Vegan Freak Radio 97:
Disease Proof: Does Soy Really Lower Sperm Count?
Dr. Fuhrman points out that more likely mitigating factor for low sperm count was the obesity of the test subjects, and that the study used highly processed soy, rather than tofu or soy beans themselves. I like how he emphasizes staying away from highly processed foods rather than soy itself, as well as reminding people to eat a variety of legumes rather than just relying on one.

MakingA Killing: The Political Economy of Animal Rights explores the intersections between human and animal oppressions and their relation to the exploitative dynamics of capitalism. Combining nuts and bolts Marxist political economy, a pluralistic anarchist critique, as well as a searing assessment of the animal rights movement, Bob Torres challenges conventional anti-capitalist thinking and convincingly advocates for the abolition of animals in industry — and on the dinner plate.

Vegan?
we don't eat nothin' that farts. or anything with a face. or anything from anything that farts or has a face. Basically, vegans avoid animal products to the greatest extent possible, with the overall goal of abolishing animal exploitation. No eggs, meat, dairy, honey, wool, leather, etc. This sounds onerous, but trust us, it isn't. Why kill to eat when you don't have to?
