“I think that’s funny. From personal experience, I eat plenty of stuff with soy and nothing’s happened. I know people who’ve taken testosterone and they’ve gotten gynecomastia from the extra testosterone. So if testosterone can make your body produce more estrogen, then wouldn’t eating something that supposedly raises estrogen levels also raise your testosterone? My body would want to level it out.”

The White House chef is already spilling the beans on what the Obamas like to eat!
According to ETOnline, White House chief chef Cristeta Comerford said Michelle Obama can’t get enough of creamed spinach, but daughters Sasha and Malia aren’t as thrilled and don’t always like eating vegetables.
When referring to a green dish, Mrs. Obama will tell Comerford, “Sasha still didn’t like it … and sometimes [the] kids are like, ‘it’s green.'”
The vegan actress wore a baby pink strapless dress, vegan shoes, and “ethical diamonds.”
Ethical or non-conflict diamonds, unlike “blood diamonds” aren’t mined in war zones where the profits go to fund violent activities against people during civil wars in Africa.
Although various certification programs exist to ensure diamonds are conflict-free, they aren’t foolproof and some have suggested that as much as 100 million US dollars worth of diamonds are traded illegally for arms each year.
Some companies, like Brilliant Earth, provide diamonds mined in conflict-free areas, such as Canada.

Wilde’s husband is Italian, who’s father was a prince, so that technically makes her a princess! Or according to Ellen, a “pancake princess.”
