Dr Oz: Kristin Kirkpatrick Good Soy vs Bad Soy & Dietary Guidelines

Dr Oz: Tempeh Aids Digestion

Dr. Oz and Dietician Kristin Kirkpatrick have begun their discussion on the controversial topic of soy and whether it is good or bad for you. While it can definitely reduce a woman’s risk of breast cancer, you would definitely want to be cautious if you are taking a thyroid medication, according to Kristin. Find out the difference between good soy vs bad soy.

Dr Oz: Kristin Kirkpatrick Good vs Bad Soy & Soy Dietary Guidelines

Kristin Kirkpatrick says that fermented soy, which is found in Tempeh, is a good source of soy because it aids in digestion helping the body to absorb more of the nutrients.

Dr. Oz says that while soy is good for you, not all soy is created equal. He and dietician Kristin Kirkpatrick has a list of foods that contain soy, some of which are bad sources of the plant-based protein and some of which are excellent sources of soy for your diet.

Soy Energy Bars– These are the worst source for getting soy in your diet because they are filled with refined flours and a lot of sugar, according to Kristin Kirkpatrick. You really are not even sure how much soy you are getting in a product like this, so it is best to stay away from them as a good source of soy.

Soy Burgers – Soy burgers are not a good source of soy because they include an ingredient called soy protein, which is a processed form of soy and when food is processed it is stripped of nutrients, explains Kristin Kirkpatrick.

Soy Chips– Kristin says that soy chips are not much better than the soy energy bars and you may as well just eat a bag of potato chips because you simply are not getting the bang for your buck where your soy consumption and health are concerned.

Soy Milk– Soy milk is an okay source of soy, but it is important to purchase the “right” kind of soy milk. Look for:

  • Whole Bean Milk (made from whole soybeans)
  • Check the Expiration Date (a longer shelf life means more additives, which you want to avoid)
  • Avoid added sugars like Brown rice syrup or evaporated cane juice

Tofu & Edamame – These are both excellent sources of soy because they are a form of “whole” soy, which is the type of soy we see people in Japan eating. Japan is where studies have shown those huge benefits in preventing breast cancer from eating soy in your diet.

Tempeh – Tempeh is another wonderful source of soy because it is a fermented form of soy, which aids in digestion and provides us with even more benefit from the soy when we eat it.

Dr Oz: Soy Recommendation

Kristin Kirkpatrick says that she recommends 1-2 “good” servings of soy per day to her patients. This could be 1 cup of whole soy milk or ½ cup of tofu, which is what the research shows can offer great benefits.
