She notes that concentrated phytoestrogens are the foundation of Estratab and Menest, two powerful prescription estrogen replacements. Henner advises that people eat whole foods and not just the isolated, extracted components. Our bodies need real, live foods like fruits, vegetables and soy. Tasty soy Realistically, there are few people in the USA who need to worry about eating too much soy in any form. Although the USA grows about half the world's soybeans, domestic human soy consumption lags far behind typical Asian diets.
Many meat lovers find soy foods bland and unappetizing, both in taste and texture.
Henner says this is easily remedied. Soy is incredibly versatile, and all my recipes are based on old-fashioned favorites, like soy sub sandwiches, meatloaf, and macaroni and cheese. Henner's chili recipe combines vegetables, spices, and soy into a powerful brew that maximizes taste and natural antioxidant activity. Henner, who is finishing her sixth book, tentatively titled Healthy Kids , emphasizes that you're never too old or too young to start eating healthy. She urges parents to avoid sugary and salty snack foods that pack on calories while delivering little nutrition.
