Plant Protein

Plant protein refers to protein derived from plant-based sources such as beans, lentils, grains, nuts, seeds, and soy. Unlike animal proteins, plant proteins often contain fiber, vitamins, and minerals beneficial for health. While some plant proteins may lack certain essential amino acids individually, consuming a variety of plant foods ensures a complete amino acid profile. Plant proteins are suitable for vegetarians, vegans, or those seeking to reduce meat intake, and they can support muscle growth, overall nutrition, and sustainable eating practices due to their lower environmental impact.
