PLANT FOOD PROTEIN COMBINATIONSIf we obtain all the essential amino acids from different foods sources, it will create a complete protein source in one single meal. Combining the right plant foods together in one meal will help form a high quality protein source. The body uses complete proteins for maintaining healthy growth of muscles, skin, nails, as well as the formation of other essential proteins for health. There are different combinations of plant foods that can be selected, so you can choose which food you prefer to eat. The diagram below shows how to successfully combine plant proteins to form a higher quality source of protein.
Any item from group # 1 above can be combined with one, single food source from any one of the three groups below.
To make a complete protein source, you select a food from group #1, then combine that food with any one item from another of the 3 other groups. Only one food from the other group needs to be selected, however including other low fat foods from other groups may help balance the diet with additional nutrients for good health. Although, be careful of the portion sizes and make sure you calculate the amount of calories you need to maintain in order to lose weight! Group # 1 includes rice, oats, corn, barley, rye, millet, wheat and all their products. 4 examples would be: GROUP # 1 GROUP # 2 RICE combined with PEAS
