Protein Combining

I always said that most plant foods are incomplete proteins, but an article I read I doubt that this is true.

The article said most plant foods, including beans, rice, broccoli, oats and corn, actually contain all the essential amino acids. This means that combining proteins (such as rice with beans) is unnecessary.

He also said that myth started because of a misinterpertation on a study on the protein requirements of laboratory rats in the 1900s.

Here's the link.

Is this true?

It is true that protein combining is a myth. Your body stores more amino acids in the blood for a week before the conversion of amines in excess calcium and throw them in your urine. You can read Dr. McDougall to see much more information on the topic of how humans process and use of amino acids.

The main problem with this wikipedia article is that it always needs protein to the needs of animals and not what humans need. Even the USDA recently lowered their recommendations for protein intake per day in spite of the meat / dairy industry protests (they left their number much higher than what the scientists recommended). In addition, the article is also using data from laboratory animals that whey protein scores as a "perfect" protein, egg albumin is more commonly referred to as a "perfect" proteins, but which is also based on laboratory animals and not human needs.

To the best of my knowledge, there have been only two studies on the amino acids of human needs using the same proven methods used on laboratory animals. The results of studies and found that matched the "perfect" source of protein for man was the skin on the potatoes! Access to these studies is now reserved for other researchers since political correctness has declared unethical (one was done by Germany during the Second World War, the other was made in the years 50 prisoners of the United States).

Proteins are simply not a problem for humans. According to current guidelines of the ideal diet based on calories (since self adjusts caloric intake) is that your diet should be 10% protein, 25% fat, 65% carbohydrate. Scientists wanted to proteins to be 5-7%, but this number was high (as I said earlier <g>).

Do not worry about protein and / or amino acids! It is simply not a problem on a decent vegetarian diet (unless you're in the meat industry grin> <evil).

It was a reading! Thank you!
I do not know if I believe that beans contain all the essential amino acids, but I know that soy has all.

Well, I heard it was originally spoken fluently in the book Diet for a Small Planet. Much later, the author said he was wrong.

I note that the American Heart Association stated that having to pay attention to what is not really the case.

You should avoid Wikipedia for the real information, it is probably useful for evidence if.

Yeah, I'm sure that's true.

Here's an excellent article that I had a bookmark:

The question to consider is: Why we all believe that we must eat meat to get enough protein?

Returning several years ago in 1914.

In 1914, two men by the names of Osborn and Mendel experimented on rats. They found that rats grew faster when they eat protein in the feed than when they ate foreman.
