RE: Are vegans at risk to lack adequate protein quantity and quality? (scientific evaluation)
Thank you @foodie.warrior! :)
Absolutely! I would recommend soy protein or a combination of rice and pea protein to get the best protein quality. :) But any protein powder works fine. Especially, if you try your best to get other sources of plant protein into your diet throughout the day.
Some people are afraid of protein powders. In my opinion, it is a food as flour. Extracted from the original plant and then concentrated to get a nutritious product. So there is no need to be afraid. It is a convenient way to get more protein into your diet. Vegans can benefit from this if they have a hard time to achieve their protein recommendation. :)
I loved how you described protein powder as a kind of 'flour'. I think most of the fear is derived from the flavour of the protein shakes people drink when they don't add any other fruits, cocoa powder, etc. to enhance the taste.
Still, your description sounds so poetic! =DD You really know your stuff and are passionate about it. Keep it up, girlie! =D
Wow, what a nice comment @foodie.warrior! I'm thrilled that you like my opinion. And you're totally right with the aspect of flavour when it comes to protein powders. Fortunately, there are now unflavoured options available.
Thank you! I'm completely honoured by your words. This means so much to me. :)
You're welcome! Keep steeming, girlie! =))
