Most people, especially those who are meat eaters, are likely to be eating proteins that are also contributing high levels of saturated fats into their diet. Protein repairs body cells, builds and repairs muscles and bones, and provides energy and eating protein in our foods gives us a feeling of satiation that can help when we are‘weight watching’. It is for these reasons that exploring alternative, vegetarian sources of protein with low calorie intake can help you to make positive steps towards a healthier diet.
Proteins are made up of strings of about 20 different amino acids, 8 of which the body can not synthesize itself and must be continually supplied in the diet. This creates particular problems for vegetarians, especially vegans who have to ensure they are getting enough protein in their diet and sufficient supplies of the essential amino acids.
Some of the world’s most brilliant and influential people have practiced and promoted the vegetarian way of life, including Pythagorus, Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein, Benjamin Franklin, Gandhi, Charles Darwin, George Bernard Shaw—just to name a few. Wouldn’t you like to join them?
