[QUOTE="VNwalking, post: 989257, member: 38350"] Sure it is! Need and want are two very different things. Proteins are polypeptides made from chains of 20 (or 22) different amino acids - 9 of which are essential: Phenylalanine, Valine, Tryptophan, Threonine, Isoleucine, Methionine, Histidine, Leucine, Lysine. Amino acids are amino acids. Whether they're from a plant or animal. There is no difference biochemically. And it's a myth that you can't get enough protein from plant foods. There are [URL='https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/complete-protein-for-vegans#The-bottom-line']plenty of options [/URL]for getting all 9 of these essential AAs. You need to combine foods sometimes, but protein is not lacking. (There may be specific and personal reasons for specifically needing meat protein, and I'm not talking about that.) True, AFAIK.
