No Tofu for Me!

I hate tofu. I have never been a fan. And now I have reasons for not starting to eat it.There has been a lot of discussion on whether soy is good or bad for breast cancer. Now finally, new research has exposed the answers.

• If you have always eaten a lot of soy your breast cancer risk is lower, and your recurrence rate is also lower.
• If you have not always eaten a lot of soy, your breast cancer risk is at normal levels (whatever they are but I didn't want to use the word 'worse' when talking about cancer rates).
• If you have not always eaten a lot of soy, starting to eat soy after a breast cancer diagnosis, doesn't help you and could even cause your recurrence rate to be not as good.

So, I hate tofu and will never be a fan. Now because of my medical history (one of the few good things due to it) I never have to consider eating it. Here's to a tofu free life!
