mrsD,

Yes, Indians are deficient in B12,particularly those who are vegetarians and those who are diabetic. B12 deficiency is common here. It is unheard of in USA.

India has ample amount of sunshine - it is an extremely hot country.Even then 75% of the population is Vit D3 deficient.

Majority of Indians are malnourished due to poverty.

Also,are eggs low in calories ? Here people say eggs and bananas increase weight rapidly.

Hi All,

I have one more concern here.

Here we get Soy milk which is got from soyabean plant. It has lot of protein.

I have read it has isoflavones which has female hormone estrogen like activity. It can have hormonal effects on men.Though it is good for women. Some sites go to say it feminizes men.

Is this true or just a myth ?
