Are there any studies regarding the body's absorption of animal protein versus plant-based protein?
I feel like this subject is often very emotional for some people, but what about science?
- blacksmith_tb 8y agoStudies to determine what about the absorption? The old line of thought about complete vs. incomplete protein has mostly fallen by the wayside, and there are certainly some fairly compelling general studies on the health overall[1] (disclaimer, I am not a vegan, but I have been vegetarian for 30+ years, and I bike, lift, and climb without any trouble). 1: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/2540540 https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullar...
- passiveincomelg 8y agoThe problem with healthy eating is that you get five opinions when you ask two experts. However, you can't find a ton of videos on YouTube with plausible sounding explanations why a plant-based diet is healthiest. Just watch those and decide to believe them. Whatever you do, do not read "The Plant Paradox". That book will ruin eating for you if you even so much as consider to ponder the possibility that it might not be total BS.
- passiveincomelg 8y agoDamn auto complete. That should be "you can find a ton of videos".
