Best Plant Proteins

 How we know which plant protein is better than other plant proteins?

To. say something best there have to be some built-in markers on which it has to be judged,
so what we can have when we take into account plant proteins, or we have to address the
factors that can make the best
let's see


plant-source-proteins
                   best plant proteins


What most important factors we have to look around?

Some markers or very important key factors, which we have to follow and these are given below

-Is it has complete protein

This is a very important marker, where we have to cheque where it has all very important
9-amino acids, and that too in very correct required ratios

-If it is an in-complete protein

Well most of the plant proteins come in this categories, but nothing to worry about 
as long as you know that what makes it incomplete, means what amino acid is much
less there, missing there or what amino acid is more there, once you know than a
protein combination can be worked out to solve this important problem

-Is protein can cause some allergy

This is a very important point to worry about, today a lot of problems are because of
protein allergy, for a lot of people gluten which is only one type of protein, does not
works very well, they have to take alternative for wheat, barley, rye
A very similar allergy although very rare is reported with, corn, and oats so before
taking them to make very sure if you are allergic to them or not

-Is proteins are mixed with phytic acid

An in lot number of plant sources of proteins, proteins occur along with phytic acid
although phytic acid works as antioxidants, but for some people, it blocks the absorption
of micronutrients in the gut, particularly, zinc, copper, magnesium, and in long run, it can
lead to some complexity, as deficiencies from micronutrients

-taste and adaptability issues

Taste is something, which makes a very powerful impact in selecting plant proteins
some times in spite of everything ok, taste mainly Matelic or grassy taste acts as a
firewall
Similarly, adaptability issue can arrive from a cooking point of view, some plant
proteins are easy in cooking than others, some very classic examples are soy
and quinoa

-affordability and availability

To say today most of the plant proteins are in short supply, it makes their prices also
high and some times question about their qualities, its pure problem of supply and
demand nothing much can be done, some areas this can be a major problem and it
creates a limited  choice, what we need or want

So, these above factors are very powerful factors that should be considered before
saying something best, what we have seen only rice and wheat and their derived
products are somewhat easy for everyone all other plant proteins are more or less
luxuries, however, our job is to provide facts about all very important plant proteins
so that's why incoming post we will take one by one plant protein and try to provide
its positive and negative impacts from this blog, plant sources of protein

Vegetarian proteins

 Who are these vegetarians and vegans?

Its a very small percentage of the world population, which has  a thing very common that 
they don't eat MEAT, and that makes them very special as their main food only comes from
plants, so, therefore, they have to be more careful to foods, type of foods, their protein contents
and also type of proteins it has,(1),(2),(3)

Why vegetarianism is adopted?

One very strong belief that they do not want that some species, animals, fishes, etc should
suffer because of them, they very strongly believe in AHIMSA, its true meaning is not to
hurt anyone whether it's human or animals at any given circumstances

Type of vegetarianism?

There are some categories, mostly depending on what they prefer to eat as food and they are

-Ovo-Lacto vegetarians

  their diet includes both eggs and dairy products, this category is maximum in percentage

-Lacto-vegetarian

they don't take eggs but take dairy products, this category is next in percentage

-Ovo-vegetarians

they take eggs but not dairy products

-Vegans

they do not take both eggs and dairy products, its very hard type of vegetarianism

So as you see in all one common factor is that they don't take meat and depends on 
plant sources of proteins
let's see


plant-source-proteins
                   vegetarian proteins


SO, WHAT ARE THE BEST PLANT SOURCES OF PROTEINS AVAILABLE TO US?

We are only giving here the list of plant proteins that we think best for vegetarians, of course
we will come back with details by providing a separate post on each of them, so let's follow

Protein combining

 What is protein combining or protein complementing?

Today this is very important and more so for vegetarians or those who are on the plant
proteins, this is the easiest rather handy method to avoid any kind of protein deficiencies
possibilities and this a part of a new trend from a dietary research point of view,(1)

What exactly this protein combination is?

    As we already discussed in previous posts that plant proteins have one typical inherent
problem and that is that sometimes they are short of one typical amino acids, to overcome
In this situation, the easiest plan should be to combine that protein with another plant
protein which is rich in that typical amino acids, and once we can manage this, this can
solve that typical deficiency problem, that's it, this total approach is called as
protein combining or protein complementing,(2)
let's see

plant-source-proteins
                   Protein combinations

How it has to be achieved?

What we must have with us is the exact amino acid profile, or chart, or fingerprint
of the proteins that we are planning to combine., it will give us what amounts we
should combine, by further converting it to food amounts, we can achieve the exact 
figures of weight wise how much foods should be combined
Today already calculated preset food combinations are available and we need not break
our head for these combinations, and some of them are well-tried ones, so you can just
adopt them in day to day requirements very easily, some very important combinations
are given below

EXAMPLES

-Rice and Chickpeas

This is a very famous combination, rice is short of amino acid Lysine, while chickpeas
is short of Methionine,so a combination of these two becomes complete protein, without
any kind of fear of any deficiencies, this is a very well tried combination and also very
popular overall food

Rice.................   306-gram per day
Chickpeas.......... 261-gram per day

-Grains and Legumes

This is another well-studied combinations, here a lot of variations and combination
is possible

In- Grains, mostly used are, wheat, barley, corn, and rice
In-Legumes, mostly used are , lentils, beans, and peas

-Grains and Milk products

This is also well studied combinations, here also lot of possibilities and one very famous
a combination that is also very popular is CURD-RICE, which means rice with yogurt

-Seeds with Legumes

This is another combination very rich in protein and studied one

In-Seeds, mostly used are sesame, sunflower
In-Legums, mostly peas, beans

Some new trends

Apart from the above very classic food combinations, some new type of combinations
are becoming very popular and these are worth maintaining, and these are all plant
proteins combinations

-Peanut butter sandwich

A very interesting combination with wheat and peanut, which provides a complete
protein, and taste-wise also great

Two slices of whole wheat bread, about 62-gram with two tablespoon peanut butter,
which works out to be about, 32-grams provide 14-gram of very good protein

Here wheat is low in lysine while peanut is rich in lysine

-Peanuts with Noodles stir-fry

  the pairing of noodles with peanut-butter is another complete protein

-Pita with Hummus

Pita is a wheat bread very popular in the middle east and hummus is a dish made out of
 chickpeas

Here one pita, about 57-gram along with two tablespoon hummus, about 32-gram provide
about 7-gram of very good protein

Here pita is low in lysine while hummus is high in lysine

-Ezekiel bread

This is also a unique item for complete protein, it's normally made out of sprouted grains
and legumes, mainly wheat, barley, soybeans, lentils, millets, and spelt, so you can say
all goodies together, what more you want

Two slices, about 68-gram can provide you 8-gram best protein

-Pumpkin seeds

These are very rich in protein, about 1/4-cup provides 9-gram complete protein
and can be combined with a lot of other proteins, including rice

-soy proteins

These are all complete proteins, tofu, tempeh, edamame all are too good and can be used
with other proteins very easily

-barley with lentils

an interesting example is barley lentil soup


So, what we have to say from plant sources of protein, that by using a variety of these
combinations, you can have not only your daily supply of very good proteins but also
along with proteins some  rare to very rare biomolecules, micro minerals, antioxidants
vitamins which anyway you will get as a bonus, so why not think off adopting this
a new style of food possibilities

Protein Powders

What are protein powders?

This is a part of a new trend to use readymade protein powders along with food that we
are taking, one way its good and make a very sure method to provide proteins to our body
Today lot of types of powders are available which are made out of very wide varieties of
protein sources and they are very popular,(1),(2)
As there are a very large number of options are available, and that makes some times difficult
to choose , rather make it a certain that what may be the best, let's see how to go about them

What are the difference in protein powders?

Most of the times these are mixture of proteins derived from animal and plant sources, and we
can technically divide in three forms

Protein concentrates

Proteins are extracted by means of chemical and bio-chemical process from food., and usually
that have
proteins..........                  ..60-to-80%
fats and carbohydrates.....20-to-40%

Protein isolates

Here more purification is carried out to increase protein contents, and usually, that have

proteins---------------------90-to-95%

Protein Hydrolysates

Here it this case proteins are broken down to lower chains and also amino acids
this form can be considered as the most active form, as can be absorbed much more
quickly then above two forms, and that makes this form hi-demand item, most
wanted from athletes, sports persons, body builders, etc

Who should take these protein powders?

A normal healthy person does not need these, as already if you are taking a protein-rich food 
they can not do any wonders, but someone who is protein deficient, or who is sick, and 
have some health problems, they can provide very great help, also for vegetarians and
vegans, they should think about them 

All those who do hard physical jobs, athletes, sportspersons, bodybuilders, intense exercises
these all have to think of taking them

Some powders are particularly very good for a particular health condition, like for persons 
having diabetics, whey powder particularly, hydrolysates works best as it raises the
insulin levels
let's see

plant-source-proteins
                    protein powders

Most important protein powders?

At present we are only providing a list, further, we will provide the details for each one
so that you can do your best decision for buying

-WHEY PROTEIN
-CASEIN PROTEIN
-EGG PROTEIN
-PEA PROTEIN
-HEMP PROTEIN
-BROWN RICE PROTEIN
-SOY PROTEIN
-MIXED PLANT PROTEINS
-PROTEIN FORTIFIED WITH FIBER
-COFFEE FLAVORED PROTEIN
-WHEY-CASEIN BLEND

Hidden dangers associated with protein powders?


There are a lot of hidden problems, or rather we can say risk factors when we talk about
these powders, let's see

-protein powder is mainly a dietary supplement and nowhere by no means we can be sure
 about the claims made by manufacturers, only we have to trust them, that's a little bad 
 situation,(3)

-we don't know any long term effects, hardly any research data is available

-it may cause digestive to unbalance or discomfort, we don't know more about it

-most of the times they are added with sugars, and very easily they can upset sugar balance

-there is the possibility of the presence of heavy metals which can very easily act as toxins
  and these are lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury,bisphenol-a, pesticides, and other toxins
  that makes the situation very alarming 

So, what best we can do?

First of all, this problem is a trust problem, better buy from the very reputed party, after checking its reviewers very thoroughly, more then this probably we may not able to do


What we think from this blog, plant sources of protein, that better concentrate on getting the
 proteins from whole food products such as seeds, nuts, yogurt, cheese, eggs, beans, lentils,
 poultry and meat rather than from these powders, anyway, our job is to provide facts so that
 you can decide for yourself the best

Protein complete

 What is a complete protein?

These are basically 9-amino acids, building blocks for protein, which the body do not make itself
and for them it depends on food what we eat. so all those proteins which are having these all
9-amino acids are called complete protein, and that protein which has missed one to two
these amino acids are called incomplete proteins,(1),(2)

Why complete proteins are important?

As we said earlier, proteins are needed because they are supply house for amino acids and
9-key amino acids also called as essential amino acids are the major requirement from the
body, so its better if we take complete protein so that all the time the supply of this very
important amino acids can be maintained,(3),(4)

What happens if we take incomplete proteins?

As we said earlier, there is a possibility that at least one amino acid may be missing from
your diet and in the long run it may end up with some health problem depending on what
The amino acid was missing, and its related deficiencies

What we should we do if we are taking incomplete proteins?

We have to make sure that what amino acid is causing deficiencies must be taken care,
which means in our regular diet we have to add a small amount of that protein which
are rich in that particular amino acid that is missing in our diet
let's see

plant-source-proteins
                    Protein complete

What are complete proteins?

We are providing a list of  some complete proteins lets follow

Fish
Eggs
Beef
Pork
Poultry
Dairy
Soy
Soy products,tofu,edamame,tempeh,miso

What are incomplete proteins?

Again we are providing an incomplete protein list

Legumes, beans, peas, lentils
Nuts
Seeds
Whole grains
Vegetables

So, as you see the most of the proteins available from plant sources are not 
complete in nature, so its very important to take them in combinations so
that a typical deficiency from particular amino acids should not start 
surfacing

So, now it may be very clear to you why we have started this blog, plant sources
of proteins, to address this problem, as more and more people are depending on
plant proteins, this becomes very important to create an awareness that how we can
best take advantage of these plant proteins, and we can become more healthy

Protein Digestion

 Why protein digestion is very important?

Well, you have taken a protein-rich diet, but if your digestion system is not up to the mark, then 
how it can provide you some help, so it's very important to understand that proteins get
digested, and if our system, means the digestive system is slow, then can we do something to
improve it, and if yes, then how,(1)

How protein gets digested?

Now this is all area controlled by enzymes, some enzymes body makes itself and some also
 comes from the food that we eat, so enzymes are involved moment protein we take,(2)

What are enzymes?

Well, these are again proteins that act as a catalyst in the living organisms where they
 regulate the rate of chemical processes, without themself being altered or attached, means
 they will be used in the process again and again, so it means very small amount can
 manage to control a large scale of conversions from these chemical processes,(3)

So, what is the role of these enzymes in protein digestion?

It all starts the moment someone eats food

-stage of chewing

This happens in the mouth itself, it involves two enzymes of saliva
amylase
lipase
they mostly work on fats and carbohydrates and they start breaking down them

-stage of stomach

For proteins, this is the main stage and here proteins converted to amino acids and
the enzyme involved is called proteases which works with hydrochloric acid present
in the stomach
proteases

-stage of the small intestine

So, amino acids formed comes to the small intestine, where the pancreas releases complex 
enzymes which along with bicarbonate buffer to further work on amino acids and the enzymes
involved are
trypsin
chymotrypsin
carboxypeptidase

Where protein gets absorbed?

So, these broken-down proteins called as amino acids get absorbed in the small intestine
and from here they will go to the bloodstream, which carries them to cells where they 
will be used for repairing tissues, and building muscles
let's see

plant-source-proteins
                   Protein digestion

How to improve this process?

-first, don't gulp, or swallow the food chew the food very thoroughly
-eat in small portions but many times throughout a day
-avoid any kind of stress while you are taking food
-do not do even moderate exercise just after a meal
-take probiotics which can increase this absorption
-if you are drinking alcohol, then limit that
-if you have some health condition such as diabetics and liver disease
 then take extra care
-try to choose better complete proteins, avoid in-complete proteins
-if you are recovering from some health condition, ask the doctor to
  recommend some digestive aids


So, this what we think from plant source of proteins, you fave to plan better kind
of proteins which may be easy to digest, also promote the habits of eating the food
correctly give more time for chewing and avoid swallowing, and also use digestion
promoters like probiotics, and enzymes

Protein too much

 Is, protein too much in any kind of danger?

This question is asked many times, that is there any kind of danger if we take protein too much
so let we examine it in a very scientific way, first of all 

How much can be called too much?

The basic recommendations are,0.36 gram per body weight in pounds, same in kgs comes to
0.8-gram per kg body weight, it translates in a very rough way about 56-gram proteins per day
for someone weighing 70 -kgs
Whatever this recommendation is only enough to avoid possible deficiencies, still it's very 
merger amounts and most of the experts believe that its not sufficient for optimizing overall
very good body health, so now what research says,(1),(2),(3)

In one study which is done by giving 3-gram per kg body weight per day for one year and
did not find any kind of adverse reporting, so this is very clear that even  4-times than
recommended values can be taken and there is nothing to worry about protein too much

If we take protein more what happens?

Any excess protein, if we take it only ends up in break down for the creation of energy,
it's not hampering or interfering with ongoing processes in the body
let's see

plant-source-protein
                   Protein too much

Does, too much protein causes osteoporosis?

It's just a myth, it's another way around it help in the cases of osteoporosis, number
of studies confirms that taking extra protein can avoid osteoporosis, improves
bone health

Does it damage the kidney?

This is also a myth, actually for very healthy persons, there are no problems with kidney
but those who already have kidney problem they should not take more actually they
have to follow very strict protein reduction in diet and for that, they have to call for
doctor


So,as you see, you can very easily take protein in excess there is nothing like protein
too-much, and this is all from plant source of proteins, our job is to provide you
real facts about proteins so that you can get some benefits out of these proteins

Protein-too-much can not be a commonly occurring situation, more often there is
only protein deficiency situation, and also sometimes typical amino acid deficiencies
that too from some particular type of amino acid, which is quite common so we 
should be more aware of  with all these possible situations

Protein health benefits

 What are protein health benefits?

We are always having bad ideas about fats and also carbohydrates, somehow they have a
bad reputation, while proteins have a very good reputation and everyone in society wants to
have more protein-rich food
Although lot number of people in developed nations are eating enough food but still poor
nations are coping up with the problems of protein deficiencies, so now let's have a look
on the health benefits that proteins can provide, if we take more proteins(1),(2),(3),(4) 
lets, follow

plant-source-protein
                   Protein Health Benefits

Increases Muscle Mass and Strength

A number of studies have shown, that if you take adequate proteins, it helps in building
muscles, so you can have more physical activity, means you can have more strength, its
particularly more helpful if you are planning to reduce weight

Reduces Appetite and Hunger

These both situations can be addressed if you take more protein, studies have proved that
you will feel more filling, more full if you take protein-rich food because it reduces the
hormones responsible for hunger and at the same time increases a hormone which makes
you feel full

Increases the Bone Strength

It saves from osteoporosis, from bone fractures, and overall it protects the bones and gives
more strength to bones, so its overall better, more so for ladies its must to  have more proteins

Boost Metabolism

Poor metabolism is a major problem and it slows down most of the body activities in a big
way, however, this problem can be solved if you take more proteins, we also called this as
a thermic effect, where proteins perform best, it means it helps in burning the calories, there
is a possibility that you can burn about 260 more calories per day if you start taking more 
proteins and this to understand more better way this 260- calories burn is almost equivalent
to complete one-hour-moderate exercise

Lowers Blood Pressure

Hi blood pressure is a very common problem today and more so it's associated with heart
attacks, strokes, and kidney disease, but this so much rampant problem can be reduced if
you take more proteins

Reduces Cholesterol

Studies have reviled that proteins can help in reducing bad cholesterol, LDL, and also
triglycerides

Increases the Fat Burning

Proteins accelerate the process of fat-burning, it's also a part of metabolic factors which
any way gets a boost by the proteins

Increases the Weight Loss

It works and works very big way, so if you are planning to reduce weight do not hesitate in
switching over to a protein-rich diet, there are a lot number of studies have been done and it is
well proved, that it works

-In one study it was found that a food covering 30% of its calories by proteins, helped to reduce
5-kgs in 12-weeks time

-In another study, a protein-rich diet, for 12-months induces the loss of 53% body fats

-In another study, it was claimed that by using more proteins, about 18% of total calories per day
reduced weight by 50%

These are all important scientific studies, from these  one thing is very sure that if you are 
having tendencies for gaining weight then must and must increase the protein intake

For Kidney health

For a healthy kidney, it is important to have good amounts of proteins but in the cases of kidney
problems, very careful, excess protein can be harmful, so take a doctor advice, for restricting
proteins

 Helps in Injury

Recovering from injuries can be more faster if you have proteins because they are the building
blocks for tissues and organs

Helps in Aging

The aging process can be reduced if you or on proteins, they help to stay fit even in old age,
 eating more protein can be one very sure way to handle age-related problems,
 it's very important
 

Reduces the Cravings and Desire for late-night Snaking

Actually, its not any kind of health problem but at the same time it can not be called as a 
very good situation and some time its too hard to control them, but if you take proteins,
then they can slow this process of craving because proteins increase a hormone that can
control this addiction

So, in the end, this is what we have to say from, plant sources of proteins, that it's better
to have some excess of protein apart from the required amounts so that you can get more extra
benefits,now question can be asked how much extra, you can go to 10-to-20% extra in
your diet planning on a very safe side

As we know very well, it's very easy to say take extra protein while a lot of world population
is not getting even required amounts only, there is a problem in prices, affordability, availability
and all this makes the ground situation just not so happy

Protein deficiencies

 What are protein deficiencies?

Protein deficiencies is a condition where somehow the body is not getting enough protein
it can happen because of some health conditions, or really not getting the proper right type
of food
In-ground reality picture is quite different, a quiet lot of population particularly in Africa and
Asia continent have protein deficiencies, some times this problem is also because of taking an
un-balanced diet mainly because of less awareness. also a small section of society, vegetarians
and vegans who do not take meat, egg, and only take plant proteins also have tendencies to
develop these deficiencies,(1)
let's see

plant-source-protein
Protein Deficiencies

So, what are these deficiencies?

Protein deficiencies can affect almost all type of functions of the body,
and because of this, it develops some very peculiar health conditions
some of them as follows,(2),(3),(4)

EDEMA

It has a very classic symptom, swollen and puffy skin, it mainly because of low human serum
albumin, its liquid in blood, it also controls oncotic pressure, lower this pressure ends up in

-fluid accumulation in tissues, causing swelling
-fluid build-up in the abdominal cavity, causing bloated belly

FATTY LIVER

Its fat accumulation in liver cells, if untreated it can lead to serious liver diseases, it happens
because of deficiencies of proteins which manages the fat transportation, also called as 
lipoproteins, their decrease in amounts can trigger this fatty-liver

-fat accumulation, the primary stage
-liver inflammation 
-liver scarring
-liver failure

LOSS IN MUSCLE MASS

Indirectly it means loss of strength, normally it happens in old age but due to protein
deficiencies can happen at any given time

BONE FRACTURES

As tissues become weak which are guarding the bones next stage danger becomes obvious
for bones and the possibility of bone fractures can not be ruled out

STUNTING

This happens to children's, growing bodies require very steady supply of proteins and protein
deficiencies can trigger this impaired growth

APPETITE

Un balanced appetite is another symptom in some cases very poor appetite and in other cases
more appetite in both cases its protein deficiency behind it , and this unregulated appetite ends
up eating a high calories-low protein food, we also call it junk food, and end results are anyway
not happy ones

RISK FOR INFECTIONS

Protein deficiencies are the major cause for poor immunity, and it becomes so helpless
that it just can not protect the body from any even milder infections

Problems with, SKIN, HAIRS, and NAILS

All these are made out of proteins any deficiencies can have a very direct impact on them
the skin develops, flaky, patches, depigmentation, hairs end up with hair fall, loss of color
thinning nails develop brittleness

So, to sum up, it's just not good, and once these deficiencies trigger some conditions,
them takes much longer time and in some cases, it is difficult to correct them, so make
sure in first place that it should not happens

There is a large population who only eat rice and very little protein along within the diet,
they have to be more careful and change their diet more scientifically

NEED OF THE HOUR IS TO CHANGE THE EATING HABITS

 At least those for whom rice is the main food, they must and must watch for themself
and they must incorporate  some protein-rich food in their diet almost immediately

Also, group of vegetarians and vegans should be very watchful for what they are taking as
food In this blog, plant sources of proteins our objective to spread awareness about
proteins and how best they should address the situation, this is our job and we will try 
our level best, particularly we have more problem from a community who only eat rice 
and do not eat wheat in their diet they have to change their eating habits without losing
much time if by chance you know someone then tries to persuade them it will be really
great thing

Type of proteins

How many types of proteins are there? 

In a very broad sense, there are only two types

Animal proteins
Plant proteins

Are these proteins are different?

Animal proteins there are not much difference most of them are very much similar while
plant proteins have a lot of variations, means in some proteins some typical amino acid is
more and in some other cases some typical amino acid may be missing,. this variation
also provides a lot of adjustment possibilities, which meat proteins do not provide,(1)

What is a complete protein?

Complete proteins are which can provide the most important 9-amino acids to the body and
in this big winner is animal proteins, most of them are complete proteins, while it is not
so in the case of plant proteins, more often one amino acid may be missing or more
in amounts,(2)
-example of complete proteins are, meat, poultry, fish, eggs, milk, and cheese

What are in-complete proteins?

In-complete proteins mean something missing, some amino acid may be missing
most of the plant proteins come in this category, but still, in plant proteins there are
some examples of complete proteins they are
-quinoa, buckwheat, and soy
lets see
plant-source-protein
                   essential amino acids


What are these 9-essential amino acids?

In 20- very important amino acids, the body can not make the 9-amino acids by itself
for them, it has to totally depend on the food what we eat, so they become still
most important or in other words most needed, these are also called essential
amino acids, so let's see what they are and what are the functions,(3)

Phenylalanine - in neurotransmitter, and production of other amino acids
Valine-muscle growth and energy production
Threonine- fat metabolism and immune function
Tryptophan-appetite,sleep,mood
Leucine-regulate blood sugar levels, growth hormone
Isoleucine-immune function, hemoglobin production
Lysine-immune function, production of energy, collagen
Methionine-tissue growth, absorption of zinc, selenium
Histidine-immune function,sexual function,nerve cells

when we have to look for plant proteins, at that time we have to make sure that
 supply of these 9-essential amino acids should be maintained and that's what
 we are going to address in this blog, plant source of proteins,(4)

The plants offers very vast varieties of proteins, they are different not only from the
number of amino acids and amounts they have but also gives a possible
opportunity to treat our body with a very rare type of amino acids compositions
which is just not true in the case of animal proteins most of them are almost
very much the same type, also more often animal proteins are the very dense type
then plant proteins

Another point of the major difference is that plant protein often combined with other
very rare bio-molecules, like antioxidants, which is not going to happen with animal
 proteins, and for those benefits even meat-eaters also have to take plant proteins
time to time

So, in this blog, Plant Source of Proteins we are examining all possible facts and also 
what best what we can offer to those who are vegetarians and vegans, so be with us and
try to explore the world of plant proteins and why its just so unique

Why plant proteins

 Why we really need plant proteins?

We have a lot of, and different type of proteins available, most easily manageable form of
proteins are animal proteins, beef, pork, lambs, chickens, fishes are the most popular forms
apart from all this, we have dairy products, milk,yogurt, cheese, and also don't forget eggs
all these are very rich in proteins, then still why we are looking towards plants,(1)

The answer of this is not so straightforward, its really complex


-fist of all we don't have enough of these animal proteins to feed a very huge population
-in number of countries the affordability is so poor that in spite of someones liking he or her
  can not afford them
-some percentage of populations, although its very small percentage, does not like to eat this
 meat and even dairy products, because of whatever reason. we call them
 vegetarians and vegans
-some people do not go for meat because of some health complexions
-some people want to identify themself with the new trend for nonmeat foods

So, as you see whether you like or not, we have to depend on plants for this day-today
supply of proteins
let's see

plant-source-protein
                    why plant proteins

Where do plants stand for this protein supply?

Although we call it animal protein but the hidden fact is it comes from the plants
with little indirect way, plants provide us grains, millets, seeds, nuts, fruits and 
these all are a very good source of proteins, and actually today this makes a very
staple foodchain for the world,(2)

Does plant protein is inferior then animal protein?

Its a total myth, in fact, whatever animal protein we think it only comes when that animal
takes some plant products as its food, so where this question of inferiorness comes from
some of this myth are created in society which claims that meat-eaters have better body
and brain both, but scientifically we are only talking about a supply of 20-essential units.
and they can come from any protein source, whether it is plant or meat,(3),(4)


So, as you see there is a lot of myth, in our society and this confusion that only meat-eaters
are blessed with better body and brain, we have to address it very scientifically and that
the reason this blog, plant source of protein is made to address the problems of vegetarians
and vegans and we will provide the best

What do proteins do

What proteins exactly do?

They do most of their work in the cell, in a very broad sense, they are extremely, and most necessary biomolecules, which are responsible for structure, function, development, growth, and regulation of most of the body functions, they exist in all parts fo cells, tissues, organs, and their role is most critical for the human body,(1) 

They are present in cells in the very abundance

The human cell may have more than 1-billion, different types of proteins, where bacteria that can not be seen by eyes normally contains more than 2-million proteins, so you can just think of how complex the situation is, we are dealing with a very large number, at the same times very complex molecules,(2)

There is so much difference in proteins, because of what?

As we already said they are made out of building blocks we call them amino acids, at least for humans 20-these units are necessary units, we call them necessary amino acids, but how they are placed makes all difference,. so this difference is because of,(3)

-amounts, which type of unit, in what amounts
-sequence, means in what order they are combined

this makes every protein to be different, and as it is different, it becomes very special and becomes suitable for some very  specific function of the body., and this makes them very unique

What are their roles in the human body?

Although their role is very complex and from that complex role they are involved in 
 almost all functions of the body, but to make it more clear we are addressing some
 major roles,(4)

Antibody

These are very specific proteins, which are supposed to bind with foreign invaders such as
viruses, bacterias etc, and thus, in the end, protect our body

Enzymes

Again these are very specific proteins, which carry out, manage, regulate thousands of
 biochemical processes going on at the cell level

Messengers

These are also called, messenger proteins, and as the name says there job is to 
communicate between the cells, tissues, organs, etc

Structure

These proteins contribute to the maintenance of body structure, mainly muscles, which
are involved in movements

Transport

These proteins  transport very key biomaterials, in bioprocesses, which are going
on in the body

Storage

They also act as a storehouse for the body needs whether it is for the purpose of
energy or for other most important functions 
let's see

plant-source-protein
                    what do proteins do


As you have seen proteins are very important for the body, any deficiency,if it happens
it will lead to undesired consequences, and whatever the case is, this should not be allowed
Most of the people get these proteins from the food they eat and as animal meat is very
rich in protein, we don't expect any unwanted situation
But there is some percentage of the population who does not want to eat meat, in poor
countries, this can be because of affordability problem, also from new trends even in
advanced countries people are turning towards non-meat foods, so what best option
we can provide
Keeping all this in mind, we have thought of generating this blog where you will get  all
very minute details, in this blog, plant source of proteins, we are going to address
what best you can get from the plant source in  this area of proteins
