Soy Causing Colon Polyps?
QUESTION:
Do you think soy can cause colon polyps?
ANSWER:
The evidence suggests that soy lectin may in fact help lower incidence of colon polyps, aminly because many lectins lower levels of polyamines, a class of chemicals which are used to provide growth stimulus to mutating colon cells.
However to see if any reports exist in the literature, I did electronically scan the 9,000,000 citations listed in MEDLINE, searching under 'soy', 'soya', 'polyps' 'intestinal' and 'colon.'
The only result was 'No Items Found' again and again.
