Instead, we just need to consume a range of amino acids over the course of a few day, and the body will pool these amino acids as necessary to create the protein molecules it needs. We don’t need to consume every amino acid with every meal. Protein is formed in the body by the joining amino acids – 11 of which can be produced by our own bodies, and 9 of which must be ingested from our food. It is not a “food”, as is often thought, but a nutrient found within many different foods. Its main role is cellular growth and repair, to maintain and replace our body tissues. Protein is an essential dietary macronutrient, alongside carbohydrate, fat, and water. In the meantime, if you have any questions you’d like me to answer specifically on protein, leave me a comment below this blog post, or over on my latest posts on Instagram or Facebook.

If you’re signed up for my weekly blogs (if you’re not, do so here!), you’ll get the subsequent parts of this series, since I’ll send the full summary to my email subs once its complete, in a reference style fact sheet on the blog, so you can find everything you need to about protein all in one place. Finally, part three will cover #5, so you can put all the information and tips into practice. Part two you can find here, which covers #3 in depth, as well as more #4.

Today I’ll cover #1 and #2 above, as well as a bit of #4. Easy plant-based meal combinations and ideas, which will ensure you’re getting all you need.Common misconceptions that come along with #2 and #3 above and.How much we need – for women, men, children, infants, in pregnancy, and during lactation too.Where can find it on a plant-based diet (hint – it’s omnipresent).Today I’m therefore going to start on part one of a three-part series, covering the facts and misconceptions around protein. However, I felt it good timing to recap again on a topic that is still very much misunderstood. I’ve written about protein many times here on the blog before, namely in this Top 75 Sources piece here, these Green Protein Pizzas here, and this Chocolate Raspberry Layer Cake here.

PROTEIN – THE FACTS, AND MISCONCEPTIONS (PART 1) But what is protein, where should we be getting it from, and how much do we actually need? These zoodles have an extra punch of protein thanks to the addition of moringa powder, as well as incidental protein from the zucchini, avocado, and tomatoes.
