Live With an Allergy to Soy - Eliminate all soy-based foods from your diet. This includes soybeans, tempeh, tofu, soy milk, soy cheese, miso, soy flour, soy sauce and so on.
Read labels carefully. Soy derivatives are not always identified as such.
Avoid foods containing the items lecithin, mono-diglycerides and monosodium glutamate, which may contain soy products.
Avoid products containing hydrolyzed vegetable protein (hvp), which may be obtained from soy. Check with the manufacturer before using the item.
Watch for products that say "natural flavors" on the label. They may be soy products. Check with the manufacturer.
Soy allergy is a fairly common food allergy, but different soy products may vary in their ability to cause an allergic reaction. Fermented soy, such as tempeh, will usually cause less of a reaction than raw soybeans.
