Soybeans possibly aren't good for reptiles. They have elements that block the absorption of nutrients. There hasn't been enough research yet to prove this in reptiles, but it has been proven in other animals/people. This is the beans themselves, I do believe that the leaves of the plant are safe.

I can't find the exact post where I read this before, but searching through the archives brings up:
