Myth: Vegans do NOT need to Compliment Protiens
Protein combining is not necessary at every meal, but it is
necessary at some point. From The American Dietetic Association Position Paper On Vegetarianism http://www.eatright.org/Public/Gover...s/92_17084.cfm "Plant protein can meet requirements when a variety of plant foods is consumed and energy needs are met. Research indicates that an assortment of plant foods EATEN OVER THE COURSE OF A DAY can provide all essential amino acids and ensure adequate nitrogen retention and use in healthy adults, thus COMPLEMENTARY PROTEINS DO NOT NEED TO BE CONSUMED AT THE SAME MEAL." ( emphasis in upper case mine ) -- Steve http://www.geocities.com/beforewisdom/ Be a healthy Vegan or Vegetarian http://geocities.com/beforewisdom/Veg/healthyVeg.html "The great American thought trap: It is not real unless it can be seen on television or bought in a shopping mall" |
