VITAMINS – OVERCOMING PROTEIN DEFICIENCY (INTRODUCTION)
Posted by adminLactovegetarians will not find it easy to prevent protein deficiency if they travel in countries where there is little dairy farming. In fact, a vegetarian may have difficulty even in our temperate regions in obtaining his eighteen amino acids every day in the food available to him, yet they are essential building blocks for the protein in his body.
Millet was the staple diet of our forefathers; together with milk and meat it provided the necessary protein. Later, potatoes were added as a valuable source of protein, and in more recent times, soya beans. Soya has proved to be an excellent vegetable protein, and was responsible for saving millions of Chinese from starvation when overpopulation made the production of sufficient animal protein impossible.
