Protein Infor For Vegans/vegetarian



Recommended Posts

I'm sad that it leaves out all the veggies. There are a ton of veggies that are an excellent source of Protein. To name a few: spinach, asparagus, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, corn, brussels sprouts, avocado etc...

Don't forget Hemp Protein. It is the only known vegan protein that has a complete ammino acid structure.

That's a great source of protein! We use it for a lot of items on our menu where I work. We are also the greenest restaurant in the USA

As a vegetarian I eat mostly veggies and fruits (salads) but this chart I came accross shows that there are PLENTY of alternative Protein sources that DO NOT require you to eat animal meat, dairy and the like- It was more of an FYI for previous nay-sayers...

I agree the morningstar things are very good as are the boca and other brands- Great things have come to fruition on the world of vegan/vegetarianism....

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
