How confusing! Yesterday, we had a report from Japanese research people concluding that soy derivatives are safe. Now the MD Anderson people say avoid soy. Olive oil has been tauted as the good oil. Here, we just learned on heating it is a carcinogen. I have been a fatty acid chemist and I could not understand the heated olive oil can become carcinogen. It is not the chemistry I have learned.
