Guest guest Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 I am in dire need of protein in my diet. I usually use a soy protein mix--and that's all. Any suggestions? Thanks, Kathryn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Here's a list of foods by nutrient content from the USDA: http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/Data/SR16-1/wtrank/wt_rank.html. For protein, the highest vegetarian thing is cottage cheese, followed by soybeans, followed by other soft cheeses (cottage and ricotta.) The first grain is couscous. Milk comes in there, then white beans. And so on. If you are seriously protein deficient, consider being vegetarian rather than vegan.
