Question

Mr Varghese says that vegetarians do not have adequate proteins is that correct give reasonS ( Hint: are there any resources of plant of proteins give examples ). Please give answer according to the hint

Answer 1

Plants are by nature rich sources of protein as they are made up of structural cells, hormones and enzymes. In fact, plants are so rich in protein that they meet the needs of the earth’s largest animals: elephants, giraffes, hippopotamuses, gorillas, cows, and horses. If these large animals with big, strong muscles can get adequate protein from plants, then so can we.

Here are 17 plant foods that contain a high amount of protein per serving.

• Seitan

• Tofu

• Lentils

• Chickpeas

• Nutritional Yeast

• Spelt and Teff

• Hempseed

• Green Peas

However, Mr. Varghese is right. The mean percentage of energy derived from animal protein was 2.5 times higher in non vegetarians than in lacto-ovo vegetarians. Intakes of plant protein, glucose, and fiber were lowest in non vegetarians.
