gymbros are afraid of soybased products, eventhough there is very little if any phytoestrogen that affects them in a significant way.

they are more likely to get estrogen-like chemicals from thier plastic bottles and drinking water.

There’s plenty of other factors that need to be considered. There will be significant differences in iron levels, b12, calcium, vitamin d, etc.

If you’re vegetarian/vegan, you absolutely need to monitor multiple other levels and take the appropriate supplements. Pretending otherwise is really dangerous.

You can get all of that just fine on a veg diet without artificial supplementation. Just eat a fucking vegetable dude.
