Protein On A Vegetarian Diet : Are You Eating Enough?

RSS

If you’ve been reading anything at all about getting fit and losing weight, the word ‘protein’ is likely to have popped up several times. In all likelihood, it has been in the context of huge jars of whey isolate, and buff bodybuilders guzzling their beloved shakes. While it is definitely a vital part of a bodybuilding regimen, what about for the average Joe (or Jolene)? How much protein do they need?

You’re probably thinking, “Oh, I don’t need protein supplements. I eat a healthy diet. Plus, I eat plenty of dal, so I’m all good on the protein front.”

The truth, however? The average vegetarian diet is severely protein-deficient!

We’ve all been taught in school that dal (lentils) and other pulses are great sources of protein, and that consuming a healthy amount of it is all our body needs. This is not a very accurate picture. For instance, an average 75-kilo male would require a daily protein intake of about 165gm. In comparison, a cup of dal (lentils) contains only about 18gm of protein. Curd, another food often crowned ‘high protein’, has only about 8g per 250ml.

Another factor we often ignore, is that these foods are not pure protein — they also contain a great deal of carbohydrates and fats. This is important, because no matter the composition of food, its consumption is still calorie-based. So while you may be tempted to increase your intake of dal and curd to match your requirements, remember that this would also multiply your daily calorie intake. For those looking to lose weight through increased protein intake, that ends up being counterproductive.

Before you start worrying that we’re about to try and convince you to start eating meat, rest assured that your dietary preferences are something we would never interfere with. And no, you don’t have to start chugging supplement-filled shakes every chance you get. We do, however, have a solution that could dramatically increase your protein intake, without changing your daily meals too much.

After a great deal of painstaking research, we’ve developed a specialty flour, designed to address the protein deficit that so many Indians face. Packed with only natural ingredients, while containing slow-release carbohydrates and plenty of fibre, this flour makes a great addition to your health regimen. Simply make your favourite rotis, breads, or even cookies using this in place of maida or atta, and you can considerably amplify your daily protein intake. For instance, 2 medium-sized rotis made from this flour contain as much as 18gm protein — that’s as much as a cup of dal, but without the carbs! What’s more, the high fibre content aids in digestion, too.

The secret lies in science, and fine ingredients. Where most flours are carb-heavy owing to being milled from wheat, our High Protein Flour is made of all-natural ingredients including amaranth, jackfruit, flax seeds, and many more delightful components that pack a power-punch, while keeping your blood sugar and your gut healthy.

So give your health a little flour power. Simply changing one ingredient can make a huge difference to your nutrition!

    LOOKING FOR HELP TO GET YOUR EX BACK TO YOU, CONTACT DR ISIKOLO NOW
    My name is Kara Harvey. Out of the abundance of joy my heart speaks highly of DR ISIKOLO. He came to my rescue when my life was ruined for months. My lover left me for another lady and little did i know he was mind controlled and hypnotized. I did all I could to make him return back to me but all to no avail. He left the city with the lady and I never heard from him or even saw him again. I went in search of help online when I read about how DR ISIKOLO helped other women that had the same problems. I contacted him and he told me all that needed to be done, which I complied. Just as he promised, the love and happiness I shared with my partner was restored and he was cleansed from the dark charm they placed on him and returned back to me after 48 hours. DR ISIKOLO is honest in helping people and he can help you to if you decide today to contact him. His email contact: isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com You can also WhatsApp him on +2348133261196

    i want to share to the whole world how Dr Kachi the Great of all the Spell Caster, that helped me reunite my marriage back, my Ex Husband broke up with me 3months ago, I have been trying to get him back ever since then, i was worried and so confused because i love him so much. I was really going too much depressed, he left me with my kids and just ignored me constantly. I have begged him for forgiveness through text messages for him to come back home and the kids crying and miss their dad but he wont reply, I wanted him back desperately. we were in a very good couple and yet he just ignores me and get on with his life just like that, so i was looking for help after reading a post of Dr Kachi on the internet when i saw a lady name SHARRON testified that Dr Kachi cast a Pure love spell to stop divorce. and i also met with other, it was about how he brought back her Ex lover in less than 24 hours at the end of her testimony she dropped his email, I contacted Dr Kachi via email and explained my problem to Dr Kachi and he told me what went wrong with my husband and how it happen, that he will restored my marriage back, and to my greatest surprise my Ex husband came back to me, and he apologized for his mistake, and for the pain he caused me and my children. Then from that day our marriage is now stronger than how it was before, Dr Kachi you’re a real spell caster, you can also get your Ex back and live with him happily: Contact Email drkachispellcast@gmail.com his Text Number and Call: +1 (209) 893-8075 his Website: https://drkachispellcaster.wixsite.com/my-site

    Omg I Finally Got Helped !! I’m so excited right now, I just have to share my testimony on this Forum.. The feeling of being loved takes away so much burden from our shoulders. I had all this but I made a big mistake when I cheated on my wife with another woman and my wife left me for over 4 months after she found out.. I was lonely, sad and devastated. Luckily I was directed to a very powerful spell caster Dr Emu who helped me cast a spell of reconciliation on our Relationship and he brought back my wife and now she loves me far more than ever.. I’m so happy with life now. Thank you so much Dr Emu, kindly Contact Dr Emu Today and get any kind of help you want.. Via Email emutemple@gmail.com or Call/WhatsApp cell number +2347012841542
