Soy when interact with estrogen receptor it increases the testosterone level while when it reacts with androgen it decreases the testosterone level. If we eat soy once in a while than these imposed affects will vanish quickly. Even if one eat soy only once a day there will be temporary changes in the Testosterone level. So it is not correct to say that Soy kill our testosterone level.
