Do you mind my asking-- what does the soy do to you? Do you get more C? I'm just wondering if I should cut soy milk from my diet. I occasionally feel a little tummy discomfort after drinking a glass of soy milk, but generally I don't have any noticeable side effects. I'm always C, so it's hard to say if soy's a trigger.
I generally don't have ill side effects with regular (cow) milk, either, though.

I have IBS-D and can't tolerate soy. I get horrible cramps and spasms, wheezy and itchy, asthma attacks and vomit or experience nausea, indigestion. It also makes me feel really unbearabley gassy and bloated and spacey.

How to describe my sensation of "spacey" in reaction to soy and also a some other foods? I guess "unable to focus, concentrate, like I consumed a drug unknowingly or something rubbery/glue-like, or inhaled something (i.e. a cleaning solution), disordered, confused, warped, zoned--not demented or anything grandiose, but just plain weirded out for no apparent reason, sort of like an absence seizure. My whole breathing/respiratory system reacts negatively when I consume soy and I get wheezy so the spaciness could be a neurological response to that. I guess the trancelike disordered without focus feeling is the best way to discribe it.
