Do you know the top 5 sources of plant protein?
The role of protein in the daily diet is very important for maintaining a varied diet and optimal health. Protein is essentially a building block in muscle tissue, helping to increase and maintain existing body mass. In addition, they promote the maintenance of good bone health and supply the body with essential amino acids that, among other things, contribute to protecting these muscles from unwanted deterioration reactions caused by intense physical activity.
The popular myth about the higher value of animal proteins (such as whey, eggs, and meat) has already been disproved. In practice, plant proteins are an equally effective source of essential nutrients and many valuable amino acids. It is often stated that vegetarians and vegans have a harder time building muscle mass or developing an athletic figure, which is
clearly not true. By choosing the right products that are high in protein, they provide the body with the means to build strong muscles. What plant protein sources have been shown to be the best choice? Here are the top 5 foods to include in your daily diet:

- peas (and other pods, such as beans)
However, it must be remembered that the level of bioavailability of the proteins present makes it impossible to assimilate the full content of the proteins accumulated in these foods. Therefore, it is worth enriching the daily diet with additional support, in the form of nutrients rich in proteins, which can be an interesting alternative to this list.
