Question for Tex
Will I get soy problems if chickens are fed soybeans? I'm talking about canned mainly but curious about the other, too.
DISCLAIMER: I am not a doctor and don't play one on TV.

Joan,
No, as those soybeans pass through the chickens, they will be broken down into individual amino acids, before the chickens' digestive system finishes with them, and then those elemental building blocks of nutrition will be utilized by the cells to grow new tissue. The same goes for the gluten in the wheat that the chickens eat, it's peptides will be completely broken down to amino acids, before being used to grow more chicken flesh. The only way that any "trigger" food that the chickens ate could affect you, would be if you ate the contents of the craw, gizzard, or intestines.
Now if they canned the chicken in a broth that contains soy or gluten, or if they injected the chicken with a broth that contained gluten or soy, that would be an entirely different matter.

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
