RE: All Protein Originates in Plants - Dr. Milton Mills
Yes, I can easily get 150% - 250% of the recommended amount of protein per day from plants. Some claim that the recommended amount for vegans is higher than for meat eaters but I am not really sure that's true - but in any case, I get plenty.
That shouldnt be true. As a human, whether i eat chickpeas or meat, i should still need the same protein, given similar body type, age and gender. Perhaps, it may be that vegans have to eat more calories to consume the required amount of protein. But i am not sure if protein requirements are accurately stated or not for the benefit of the meat industry. My statement smells of conspiracy theory but i cant deny the possibility.
