Guest guest Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Hi guys! I am new to this board and a newbee in veganism. I've been a vegan for 2 months now and I love it ! :-) I am posting here to pick your brains up about protein intake. As my forthcoming IVF is approaching I am supposed to eat 60 gr of protein a day. Could you please give me a list of foods with the highest protein content or some ideas what to eat so I reach this number? I will be very gratefull for any suggestions. Kind regards, Teo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Well, for a start it's unlikely you'll need to worry about your protein intake. Most people get far too much protein. But some foods high in it are beans, pulses etc, tofu, some of the 'veggie' foods like veggie burgers and such (although check to make sure there's no egg!) and nuts. The Vegan Society's website is very useful - loads of information on all things vegan, and they have some excellent nutrition info - what foods have what in it, what you need and why etc. Their site is http://www.vegansociety.com and their nutrition pages start at http://www.vegansociety.com/html/food/nutrition/ with a list of great links on the left. For example, if you click on the one for 'protein' it tells you what it is, why you need it, where it can be found, and even how much you need according to age, gender etc. Hope that helps! If not, this is a good place to ask things like that (even if it is a bit quiet here sometimes!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Best foods for protien are tofu, beans and pulses, and nuts. You dont need to eat much to hit that target.
