Where do you get your protein?
From nearly all foods that we eat, is the answer. Contrary to popular belief, meat does not have a monopoly on protein. Those eating a calorie-sufficient, balanced, plant-based diet will get plenty of protein. Evidence-based food guidelines, such as Canada's Dietary Guidelines, published in January 2019, support moving toward more plant-based diets. Like the Canadian Food Guide, The American College of Lifestyle Medicine Whole-Food Plant-based diet highlights WFPB protein options. Those not eating plant-based diets generally consume far more protein than is necessary. |
Everyone should never forget that the CELL is the ultimate destination of the nutrients found in food. It would undergo a lot of tedious courses of action, including digestion, absorption, and metabolism that are the three interrelated processes that act on food in many different levels to prepare it for use by the body. Then the last process is excretion, where elimination of undigestible or unusable substances takes place.
