We all love tofu. But tofu takes a while to prepare, and is fatty enough to be a bit filling even when made to hold higher protein.
One of my main sources of protein is peanut flour aka walmart "powdered peanut butter" aka pb2 protein powder (huge markup for seemingly no nutritional change from flour, might just be relabeled flour?)
It's incredibly nutritious and I'd like to point out the high potassium levels. With whey/soy isolate carbohydrate levels are minimal, so this is where I get it in my shakes.
I wanted to ask for recipes I could prepare with chickpea/gram flour and other incredibly nutritious foods like this. I've added peanut flour to pancakes & some oatmeal bars but I haven't perfected the ratios.
You don't really need to worry about protein like this most people get plenty in their diet. This is a good discussion between two nutritionists who specialize in protein, they start talking about plant-based diets around 44:21 and the section is about 6 minutes long, but the whole video is very good and informative.
this is perhaps the best evidence ive seen, from an enormous population study. table 2 and table 3 show median protein intake across omnis, different types of vegetarians, and vegans (called "strict vegetarians" here lol) and shows that its almost exactly the same across all groups
To be fair, vegan, strictly speaking, means the complete lifestyle and philosophy, including ties to the Vegan Society, and academics like to avoid that semantic mess and avoid using vegan, or vegan diet, and prefer to use precises phrases like strict vegetarian for vegan, and lacto-ovo-vegetarian for western vegetarians. Did find it interesting that, in a lot of parts of the world, especially India, 'Vegetarian' is usually assumed to be just lacto-vegetarians, and they're often confused by westerners claiming to be veg while still easting eggs.
Most omnis eat fucking trash though they're not eating sirloin all day like the memes. they're eating doritos, hot dogs, just absolute trash
In my experience vegans do not get enough protein to build muscle without extra effort. They say 1.2 grams per kilogram (just for upkeep?) and say most people are hitting that already, but I'm certainly not without eating a big hunk of seitan or similar each day. Maybe I need to watch a different chunk of this video, or there's a transcript?
You'll feel a lot better if you move your nutrient balance towards protein, it feels better to digest. I feel a happy glow suffusing my whole body. It makes my skin better I swear.
Nah I'm following this bodybuilding guide and the results have been insane. I'll post physique when I'm not so pale and wretched.
