Ask anyone about protein and all you get is platitudes like,
“Protein? It’s complex, man.”
Why is this essential part of our diet such a mystery to most of us? Many are either afraid to broach the subject at all, or they blindly follow misinformation.
Here’s are some quick facts to demystify protein and help you understand its role in our nutrition:
Protein found in nature is made up of same components, i.e., amino acids, as the protein in your body.
Protein performs essential functions in our body like building tissues or maintaining body structure.
Our body has some pre- store amino acids but there are nine amino acids our body cannot produce. So, we need these from our diet.
So now that you know protein is essential!
How do you maintain its supply to your body? The answer could vary depending on your source.
| SOURCE | PLANT | MEAT | WHEY |
|---|---|---|---|
| NUTRITION | Natural minerals, iron, essential vitamins, amino acids, fibre, and antioxidants. | Natural minerals, iron, essential vitamins, amino acids, fibre, and antioxidants. | Carbohydrates, fats, sugar, amino acids |
| CALORIES | Contains zero saturated fats; low calorie | High fat; high cholesterol; high calorie | Contains saturated fat; high calorie |
| DISEASES | Reduces risks of heart disease, Type 2 Diabetes, high BP, cancer, obesity, and hormonal Disorders | Increased risk of cancer, heart diseases, osteoporosis | Associated with digestive issues, pain and cramping; allergic |
| PRICE | Affordable | Relatively expensive | Expensive |
| SUSTAINABILITY | Requires less water and land; highly cost-effective and sustainable | Higher productivity cost; associated with ecological imbalance | Requires more land and water; ecologically inefficient |
| ETHICS | Zero animal cruelty; locally grown; sustainable | Extremely cruel & Not animal friendly; improper breeding; contains toxins | Cruel and highly processed |
If one can get the same nutrition from nature, without disturbing the ecology of the planet or hurting animals,
Why would you ever use animal protein ever again?
Why Green Protein
Choosing plant protein over animal protein was an easy choice, considering its incredible advantages. But why choose us? How are we different?
Well, let’s go to the chalkboard yet again, and compare the different plant protein sources.
| SOURCE | PEA PROTEIN | RICE | WHEAT | SOY |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TASTE | Easiest on the palate | Gritty and chalky with a strong aftertaste | Neutral taste hydrated texture | Nutty and bitter aftertaste |
| MISCIBILITY | Easily mixes | Not easy to mix | Tends to get gluggy – slime like | Less miscible than other plant proteins |
| DIGESTION | No bloating and gastric issues | Causes digestive and gastrointestinal issues | Easily digestible | Hard to digest |
| COST | Affordable | Highly affordable | Affordable | Expensive |
| TOXICITY | No known toxins or side effects | May possess high levels of toxins, depending on where its grown | Can lead to intestinal problems especially for people with gluten sensitivity | Extensive use may cause hormonal imbalance |
| AMINO ACID PROFILE | High in BCAAs; rich amino acid profile | Incomplete BCAA profile | Low Leucine; lower muscle building capacity | Low leucine; incomplete amino acid profile |
The above analysis clearly indicates that pea protein is superior compared to all other plant based protein sources on distinct measures of digestion, taste, ease of consumption, nutrition value, and affordability.
