Soy Bad, Soy Good: The Pluses of Fermented Soy

I challenge Dr. Mercola's comment on nattokinase being used safely for more than 20 years. I recently looked into the research about Nattokinase and Natto as an alternative to traditional blood thinning meds and the only research/tests that have been done on the clot dissolving blood thinning effects of this enzyme revolve around Natto the food not nattokinase the pill form if you will. There are not trials nor studies on nattokinase that are published and i even spoke with the Japanses scientist(Dr Hiroyuki Sumi) that did the research and conducted the trials on it. He never tested nattokinase on anyone. So i would question what you read on here as being valid and tested. There are no trials or studies going back 20 years on nattokinase, only on the food product itself Natto. i'm beginning to question Dr. Mercola's stance on just wanting to publish information that will help people rather than pushing a product now.

Does anyone know if there is such a product as "gluten-free, fermented, non-gmo soy sauce"???

I am questioning the same thing Laura is--how do we know which soy sauces are fermented???? Are they all? How can you tell? Is Braggs liquid aminos fermented?? I would be sooo happy if someone could answer this for me!

I've been feeding my 11 month old baby girl formula since she's 5 months. It is the organic, milk-based one from Earth Best, but looking at the list of ingredients there is still some soy contained in it. I'm concerned about it after reading all these articles on soy. Can it be harmful? Is there an alternative that does not contain soy? I looked at all the brands and they all contain it.

Thanks!

Where can I find fermented soy milk? And, how can I be sure which soy sauces are using fermented soy (the ingredients simply list soybeans most of the time).

Thanks!
