I get this question often and apparently over 78,000,000 have googled this question, and I know why. If people have been taught over the years about animal proteins but have not gotten information on plant proteins, amino acids and the breakdown and usage of them by our bodies then pertinent info would be lacking. The Standard American Diet (SAD), consists of entirely too much animal proteins, fat and sugar!
1 Of many studies:
Excerpt from "The China Study", by Dr. T. Colin Campbell: I then noticed a research report from India that had some very provocative, relevant findings.
Indian researchers had studied two groups of rats. In one group, they administered the cancer causing
aflatoxin, then fed a diet that was composed of 20% protein, a level near what many of
us consume in the West. In the other group, they administered the same amount of aflatoxin,
but then fed a diet that was only composed of 5% protein. Incredibly, every single animal that
consumed the 20% protein diet had evidence of liver cancer, and every single animal that
consumed a 5% protein diet avoided liver cancer. It was a 100 to 0 score, leaving no doubt that
nutrition trumped chemical carcinogens, even very potent carcinogens, in controlling cancer.
Some of the best Non-animal protein sources:
1. Spirulina (dried blue-green algae)
2.Hemp Seeds
3. Flax Seeds
4.Seeds/Nuts
5. Bee Pollen
6. Last but not least is produce!
