I did the math recently and I think that in order to hit what the WHO considers the minimum safe protein for my weight, I would have to eat WAY more, like twice what I typically do.
This may be a vegan-specific problem.
It's not a vegan problem. It's a food selection problem.
I'm vegan and I eat plenty of protein. More than most non vegans
It's a vegan problem in that it can be a problem for vegans, not that it's a problem for all vegans.
Sure. It can be a problem for anyone, including vegans. Vegan does not save you from bad food choices
Beans and lentils are your friend.
Lemmy needs to know the difference between protein and amino acids in diet. All plants are protein.
I try to teach people about protein and bioavailability all the time!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebig%27s_law_of_the_minimum
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digestible_Indispensable_Amino_Acid_Score
And a very handy tool - https://www.diaas-calculator.com/
While many plants have some amino acids, they don't have enough of the right combinations to be biologically useful (liebig's barrel). It's dangerous to assume all plants are protein, because that is a measure of crude protein (nitrogen estimate) and not actually amino acid ratios. Make sure whatever plant your eating actually has a biologically meaningful diaas score.
They have protein but they're mostly composed of complex carbs like starch, fiber, and cellulose. Their actual protein content varies but in general it's much lower than legumes
If you're vegetarian or vegan and don't eat legumes, then you're probably not getting enough protein.
If I may ask, what is your target grams per day of protein?
According to this calculator I should be eating 53g protein per day.
As someone who needs to lose weight, that calculator says my who minimum safe protein is 113 g/day. As a carnivore, I don’t see how I do this on most days.
I call bs on the claim that most of us get too much protein. Overweight people are less likely to and plant eaters are less likely to.
The muscle building community recommendations are based on insufficient evidence and are likely too high. I do believe those following them likely to get excessive protein their body can’t use but I don’t see how that generalizes to “most people”
450g of beef/chicken per day (if you eat 3x a day thats 150g per meal)
consider low carb, its highly effective and can prioritize protein at the same time.
I don't really think everyone who eats meat does three full portions a day
Fair, I myself only eat once a day, so there is a ton a variability out there. Most people probably eat 6-8 times per day (breakfast, snack, drink, snack, lunch, etc).. but 3 a day seems to be the commonly accepted "normal" pattern
Breakfast - 2 eggs == 12g protein
Lunch - pbj == 7g protein
Dinner - chicken breast == 31g protein
It seems to me my typical day is 50-60g protein, which is way lower than any recommendation 🙁
While I have no pretensions to being “typical”, if I get half the recommended protein in a day, yeah I have a problem believing the claim that most people get too much
Oh yeah. Totally agree. Most people have a huge protein problem. Hence the widespread B12 deficiency problems.
It says I should be eating between 67 and 200+ g of protein, because of how much I exercise it should probably be like 150+ and I'm definitely not eating enough protein.
