I know a lot of people worry about soy and it's many reported dangers. We've all heard of it's estrogenic effects, goitrogenic worries, high phytate content, fertility and testosterone reducing issues.
Well, here is a well researched and cited article that explains all of that and actually shows that it is actually a very health promoting food that we shouldn't shy away from.
Instead of posting a bunch of studies that are hard to thumb through, this article links about 25 of them.

I like soy and don't doubt it's safety, but as with anything, keep it in moderation. Besides, even water can be bad for your health if you have too much.
Ever wonder why there is so much bad press around soy? Ask the Meat and Dairy industry funded Weston A Price foundation. But don't listen too long, they will get you on a butter and lard diet before you know it. Free range of course.

Kaleidoscope was a cool touch.
The production value and quality of your video's has always been outstanding. The kaleidoscope in this one was very cool.
Thank you so much. Yes, I was pleasantly surprised when I found that effect.
looks delicious!"!
I love tofu scrambles! I add tons of veggies, turmeric, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, paprika and nutritional yeast. So good and filling.
That surprise toast though
Very close to how i do it, but only thing is that i add a little water right after i have cooked the tofu. It helps all that accumulated caramelization and turmeric at the bottom of the pan to come of. Guarantee your scramble will have a deeper taste!
I heard you, no oil. I was not ready. Now I am cooking with no oil and loving it. It’s so Weird that even a pecan is oily and have cut down to a few a day. Thank you . You are making my transition fun and delicious. Keep up the great work you are helping many that have Been struggling with the old tired diet of artificial sweeteners and diet Coke and processed 100 cal snacks. You are my sidekick ..
Duuuuude love all your content but on this one you absolutely killed it with the kaleidoscope relaxation time at the end!! 👏👏👏🏄🏄🙌🙌🌿🍃🍃
Haha thanks brother!
Love it! I actually got tears breathing and watching the kaleidoscope at the end. Super Special and so are you. Thank you. I think I really needed that and didn't even know.
Thank you for the gift you gave me with this relaxing kaleidoskop.
I really love your positive attitude!
Beautiful basic tofu scramble. I have doing this for quite a while and it never gets boring as you can substitute anything for whatever you have at home. I really like to add ginger and a splash of soy.
You have no idea how much that 60 seconds of just breathing at the end helped me. We all need that sometimes... The life is good really had an impact on me in that moment, more so than ever before. Thank you, for everything
Love your videos and recipes and energy. I love the kaleidoscopes too. Reminds me of kaleidoscope quilts!
Life is a kaleidoscope! Thanks for the reminder man.
dropping by with a quick note about spices! i highly suggest adding the black pepper after the rest of the dish is cooked. heating black pepper makes it bitter. great recipe, thank you.
Dude the food Kaleidoscope was amazing! I’d like to see a lot more of that!. Great recipe too!
Awesome video.
The end was epic!!! Showed it to a bunch of work mates and now they are watching you.
Thanks for all the great content.
Thanks so much Laurie!
Loved the kaleidoscope at the end.....definitely gonna try this breakfast tomorrow morning 😋
Thx!
No problem Darren.
I really like tofu scrambles...and this one is fantastic. Plenty of vegetables. Great kalidescope and moment of Zen...
Simple, Easy, and Nicely done! Will share this with my plant-based community🤗
Good day!!! I like your recipes. Please upload more of those!!!
Bro sooo much better recipe then the stuff you usually eat on camera haha it tastes awesome!
more recipies please they so helpful. thanks.
Simnett - I would like to see you get into making some authentic, artisan whole-grain (I usually go for spelt or rye with some cracked grains and seeds) sourdough bread and getting into things such as dehydrating tomatoes to make sun-dried tomatoes.
I usually go for organic spelt or rye with some cracked grains and seeds for the sourdough, and for the dehydrating component a conventional fan-forced oven with door left ajar works too.
Sour dough bread + homemade hummus + sundried tomatoes + wilted greens... O.O
It changed my world going to sourdough (genuine sourdough), and the symptoms I used to get with grains (bloating/gastrointestinal issues, lethargy, skin issues etc.) disappeared.
Wow how did I miss this? I love the whole food bliss break at the end -- I could do with a few more of those if your artsy side leans that way ❤🥦
My first tofu meditation. Loving the videos!
your videos are so beautiful, vibrant, and happy. they are part of my daily mental and emotional diet. thank you Derek!
I am definitely trying this. I don't love eggs, and didn't eat them much even before becoming a vegan, this looks delicious delicious however. Can't wait to taste it.
Old school SN videos! Love how much your channel has grown! Forever subscriber !
Having this for lunch today... Can't wait. Thanks D
Enjoy!
I have already made this thank you Derek
Love the recipe--i have never thought to crumble it first and incorporate the spices. Thanks for that !!! 😊 Love the visual art at the end
Love the bit at the end!! It'd be awesome of you video about deep breathing and meditation out in nature, with Cristol. Y'all give off such a positive vibe!
For sure!
I made some this morning!! With spinach, mushrooms, red onion, and red pepper. I put on top of avocado toast with a side of berries.
Wow that was amazing! Good healthy meal and trippy kaleidoscope! Love it!
Delightful recipe
I've been vegan for almost 8 years now, and although I use tofu a lot and I'm a fairly good cook, I have yet to make a scramble. I think I'll try this recipe though. The ingredients look not only delicious, but also simple. Keep up the good work! Your channel is definitely a big inspiration.
Thanks Scott.
Well you did it!! 100k over the weekend!! Congratulations!! 🎉🎉
I did this today …bro you are awesome ❤️❤️
it tastes really good
Thanks for this delicious recipe.
I made this last night. Friggin delicious!! Thanks man.
Awesome. So glad to hear that you made it. Thanks for letting me know.
I have got to try this out, I personally do not like kale that much hopefully i will find this taste delicious. Plus the onion chopping, so cool!
You could always use spinach or another green... or no greens. :D
Absolutely ❣️
I've actually made this before. :) But I don't put in hot pepper myself. Maybe a bit of sweet bell pepper. I do like adding a bit of fresh garlic and mushrooms to mine. I've also used spinach but I haven't tried Kale. It looks good... need to try it.
Need to add a bit more water when cooking tho. Put the water in the pan right away and let the water heat up before adding the onion. That does look really colourful and delicious!
The pepper wasn't a hot pepper. It might be good like that though. Yes, you are totally right about the water. I didn't think about it until after actually. It's hard filming a food video sometimes. Usually I just cook and don't think about much. Thank you.
:) I just started trying to make test videos and I'm discovering how much your brain scrambles a bit when it turns on you. :)
Never thought about coating the tofu with tumeric first. Someone just gave me some black salt., I'd never normally get it but since I have it I'll have to try it. I need to make this again, it looks fantastic! LOL Cheers!
***** Haha, totally.
We make this every week. We added diced potatoes to our and it was AMAZING. Love the Ebook
Hey thanks for the inspiration...you always make my day
I’ve tried black Himalayan salt and it’s tasty as a tofu seasoning like sulphur but still love a pinch of curry powder in my scrambled eggz
I would love more of these vegan recipes.
Amazing! I will make some more soon. In the summer there is so much fun stuff to film so I tend to do more in the winter. But I will do a few more, have you seen the 'what I eat in a day's'? They might be helpful too!
I'll check out those videos. Love your content, keep it up!
Hey Derek! Me and my partner Candance (both vegan) are huge fans of your channel and really appreciate your authenticity in a sea of a lot of pandering to people's egos. Anyways haha! I was curious if you used and aminos, natural Tamari, nutritional yeast(b12) or Himalayan salt for flavoring? We use it sparingly but as chefs it's become a bit of a habit. And of you don't use it why not? Obviously excessively i get it, but it has mineral benefits of used sparingly i thought? Thank you so much for sharing your message and light, much love ❤
I'd love more tofu recipes!
So keen to try this!
Clever ending thank you
My husband was amazed at how good this was! THANK YOU!!
YAY! That's so great. I love hearing that. Thanks for letting me know. Cheers.
I think I am going to try this one day this week.
man, I just found your channel, but your recipes are on point! I really love that it is mostly REAL plants! Thank you so much for all your effort. Definitely would like to see more what I ate today or recipe videos :) (I subbed)
Thank for the tip about Turmeric and Black pepper!! We made a vegan egg salad sandwich on our channel... but i like the idea of not using any vegan mayo to keep things healthier! sweet vid!
Love making a good tofu scramble. There are so many variations you can make with this. Great addition is starting of frying some brown chessnut mushrooms in the pan before adding the tofu, it really give the dish a lot more depth! Btw, why no salt? Adding salt realy elevates the taste of this aswel :)
PS: that ending was amazing!
m from india. nd a vegan.. accidentally i see ur videos. all r amazing.. nd thx fr being a vegan to help us.. #Respect_You
I already make tofu scramble but I make it either with my own home made BBQ sauce or Curry seasonings (which includes tumeric) lol. I will have to try the kale in it though. Lord knows we can always use ore greens!
Just cooked this for dinner (I added mushrooms) and I have to admit at first I had my doubts, but this tastes exactly like scrambled eggs😱❤️ thank you!
on a bed of greens! genius 😁 why didn't i think of that
Perf. Been looking for a tofu scramble recipie
If you want less of your nutrition burning on the pan from lack off oil add your water but then follow it up with a lid ontop. This will keep the steam flowing and reducing any burning of food sticking to the pan and overall collecting more nutrition.
Derek, I love your videos & recipes. Thank you for what you do. I am eating tofu scramble right now that I took from your e-recipe book. Although it’s very delicious, it’s a bit too middle eastern in flavor for my liking… turmeric, cumin, etc… do you have a recipe that gives it a more neutral flavor? Maybe different spices?
Thanks that inspires me. Thank you!
You've changed so much since this video. Still great!
I sub'd. Your content is so informative. Plus, I don't cook with oil so loving the receipes. God bless
Thanks Kerry!
Excellent! And great description. Ironically eggs LOWER testosterone through a feedback loop- they are from hen ovaries so contain some estrogen. The human brain senses that estrogen in men and assumes there’s too much testosterone and it is aromatizing into estrogen and this turn T production down. I used to eat 2-3 eggs a day and had lower testosterone though no special symptoms. And I tried vegan for 6wks straight and retested and found T had doubled! Unfortunately I gradually let meet and dairy creep back in but now feel much more aligned with vegan eating and even was able to treat this way on a trip to nyc without eating meat or pizza. What a difference.
I tried this recipe this morning with some vegan breakfast sausage. Very good recipe. I used an orange bell pepper cuz thats all i had. Just as good.
I was looking for more breakfast vegan option and this is awesome!. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
Been following you a long time, never commented till now.. love all your videos and just he way you do life.. I will definitely b trying this soon
Looks amazing and love how simple this recipe is. Will definitely make it this weekend.
If I do make it I will be using the black salt cause I do need it to taste exactly like eggs 😃😜 and I hear a lot of people say that you're supposed to use tofu that has been frozen and you're supposed to press it . I've tried that , doesn't make it taste any better to me so I guess I have to aquire a taste for it. Anyway I'm going to try this recipe cause I do love scrambled eggs and I don't use oil either when I cook so that is something we have in common.
I will be trying this! And I finally know how to dice an onion properly. Cheers!
Awesome video man, it's quick fast and straight to the point. Keep making more cooking video's.
Great video - making this tomorrow!
Oh wow such an old vid! Thanks for watching. Try and find Kala namak (black salt) if you want and eggy flavour.
Hi, Derek! I made this recipe and it is so delicious! Filling but not too much. Kept me going all morning!
Awesome! So glad you like it :)
Wish I had found your videos sooner. The way you cook is exactly what I was looking for. Good clean plant based cruelty free nutrition. Cheers brother! :)
I already make this but not with black pepper. Will do that next time. Liked kaleidoscope, but not the music.
I will try it for sure....looks so yummy. I have not made a tofu scramble in a while.
Going to make this tomorrow! I like the kaleidoscope!
Awesome!
Simnett Nutrition made it this morning and it was delicious! Thanks for the inspiration and video instructions.
Derek, do you think soy has a special place in someone's diet?
You seem to include flax seeds & turmeric (w/ black pepper) every day, because of their unique nutritional propertes; this would make Michael Greger VERY proud. Do you think soy deserves similar attention? Does it possess special properties above and beyond other legumes, possibly warranting daily consumption, or would getting protein from starchy beans and fats from nuts/seeds prove similarly nutritious? Might it have a special place in the diet of an individual looking to gain muscle?
How often do YOU consume soy?
Amazing.
Very cool, loved the kaleidoscope. I'm going to give this a go - your recipes are very easy & non-intimidating - makes me want to try them. Thanks for the content :)
That is great! Yes, I try and keep things simple. Simple, palatable and healthy is the trifecta I go for! Thank you Donna.
Tried it today, it was superrrrrr good 💖
Neil putman from cullman. Am going to try it
Lovely
THANKS... GOING TO TRY THIS
Thank u for showing ur tip of how to cut an onion! I'm trying to cook more than buying premade vegan food.
Amazing. Yes, you will save money and eat healthier. Good job, keep practicing. You will get better!

Looks amazing. Try some seasoned rice vinegar, it intensifies the flavors a bit.
I'm gonna need more of these recipe videos please
I watch ur videos all the time and they are great. Awesome recipe!!!
Nice! This vid is a year old! Thanks for watching and commenting :D
This channel is awesome.
A friend of mine makes a version of this with sweet potatoes in it man it is so good.
Thank you so much for the end of this video.
Looks delicious!
Just made this and it was so dayum yummy!
Yes!
yo mate! i just stumbled on your videos and i love them! I am also really into fitness and i'm thinking about becoming a vegan because of health reasons. I am a student and got a budget. Are you buying everything organic? What do you recommand to me as someone with not that much to spend. Enjoy your day!
Hey! That is awesome. I am glad you found me then. It's good timing. I don't buy everything organic. I buy what I can and what is available, but sometimes it is difficult. I would get the plant based thing down first.
Derek, The tofu eggs were amazing. Keep the recipes coming
Glad you liked them.
this video made me subscribed thank you bro
Thank you!
