The Myth of Incomplete Plant Proteins

All essential amino acids originate from plants and microbes, and all plant proteins have them./nThe only truly incomplete protein is gelatine, which is missing the menno acid tryptophan./nMost people on plant-based diets consume twice the average requirement for protein./nThe concept that plant protein is inferior to animal protein arose from studies on rats more than a century ago./nInfant rats don't grow as well on plants, but this doesn't mean we shouldn't breastfeed human babies.
