WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR PROTEIN?

 

It's easier than you might imagine to get plenty of protein from vegetarian

foods. If you include dairy products and eggs into your regimen, look no

further. These are a rich source of protein. Seek out low-fat or non-fat

dairy products to avoid excessive saturated fats.

 

In a diet consisting solely of plant based foods, protein abounds in whole

grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. In the legume family, the soybean ranks

highest in its protein content.

 

Products made from soy are usually high in protein, with the exception of

soy sauce. Read labels on packages of tofu and veggie meats for the

surprising amount of protein these contain. Try some tempeh, made from

fermented soy beans. Even fruits and vegetables contain some protein.

 

Be sure to include a wide variety of foods throughout the day with the

assurance that these will provide you with more than adequate protein.

 

When you sprinkle a few nuts or some garbanzo beans over a salad, you are

adding protein.
