http://www.proteinvegan.com Simple Daily Sources for Vegan Protein Simple Vegan Protein I am always being asked by people I exercise and work out with about getting protein and enough protein in my vegan diet. The majority of people think that protein sources are just from red meat or fish. When I explain to them that protein is pretty much in the majority of foods we eat. Well, if you eat healthy, protein is in just about everything. Now when exercising and working out, you will need to eat more than the average person every day, but getting that extra protein is very easy. What are Sources of Vegan Protein Healthy food contains sufficient amounts of vegan protein. For example, nuts, grains and green vegetables contain the majority of the daily protein requirements for those of you that are either non-active or lightly active. For others that are active on a daily basis, meaning, running, and/or weightlifting, I recommend using vegan protein supplements or soy protein shakes. Is Vegan Protein a Concern? Getting enough protein as a vegan is not concerning. I would recommend understanding the protein levels in different foods and mixing those foods up in your diet on a regular basis. Again, for the athletes, I would recommend using a protein supplement after your workout, just to keep your energy level up during the day.
