Frequently Asked Questions

Can vegans get enough protein?

Absolutely β€” lentils, tofu, tempeh, seitan, beans, peas, quinoa and soy milk make hitting 1.6 g/kg straightforward with a little planning.

Do I need to combine plant proteins?

The old 'complete protein at every meal' rule is outdated. Eating varied protein sources across the day covers all essential amino acids.
