So 50 grams of protein from tofu is not the same as 50 grams of protein from a steak, both in terms of coexisting nutrients that you get, because there are many nutrients in meat that occur only in animal foods, creatine, carnitine, anserine, taurine, B12, K2, uniquely important vital role for humans in their diets. They don't occur in plants.

Plants may have other nutrients that are useful for humans, but nutrients that occur in plants often not as bioavailable. So 50 grams of protein from steak, much more bioavailable 50 grams protein from tofu. You could eat twice as much tofu, but again, you're still not getting any of the nutrients in meat. And I would argue there are other downsides to eating tofu.

There is a study that shows that soy actually decreases androgen receptor density. Soy doesn't decrease testosterone or sex hormones. You ever heard of the term soy boys? And the colloquial notion is that soy decreases androgens or testosterone.

That doesn't seem to happen in humans based on what I've seen, but it does decrease, at least in one study, androgen receptor density, which is interesting because in order for testosterone to work, It has to bind to a receptor. So I'm not a huge fan of soy for a lot of reasons. Soy is also a hugely subsidized crop in the United States. We can talk about, I think, $45 billion annually.

Maybe, I don't have to check that, but $45 billion potentially annually in crop subsidies for soy. And all that soy, most of that soy goes to soybean oil. Wow. It goes to seed oils.
