  • In today’s video, I discuss the best and worst Vegan Protein Tier List. Most people when talking about vegan protein talk about the foods that contain the highest amount of protein. This is an incorrect way to look at these foods. Its not the foods that you eat, but how much protein from those foods that your body can digest.

  • @CarlYota
    @CarlYota 18 дней назад +2

    It's unclear if certain foods are ranking low because they don't have enough of a certain amino acid, or if they "aren't digestible". Food combining eliminates the "not enough leucine" nonsense that many people criticize plants for. But if, for some reason, we can't digest the protein in chickpeas that's a different story. It's confusing.

    I like that you didnt go with protein per calorie, I've seen other people do that and put mushrooms (3%) as the best source which is idiotic. But I do think you should factor in portion size as well as per 100g. I can easily eat 500g of broccoli or 400g of beans but I would never eat much more than 100g of nuts per day. Chia seeds and nutritional yeast will only ever be sprinkled on a dish, so their protein per 100g is very misleading. Not sure why Tempeh isnt a tier above tofu when it has twice as much protein. You say black beans have 21% protein, but tins (i.e. cooked) are only 7.5%. You say "when cooked" for quinoa but are actually using the dry weight. Broccoli is being disproportionately penalised for being 90% water.

      Except it's misleading because it implies we only absorb a small amount of the protein in these plant foods. But the DIASS measures both amino acid profile and digestibility. So I think many viewers will assume you only get say 60% of he protein in chickpeas. That would only be the case if you only ate chickpeas and never any other food. Combine it with rice and it would jump to the 80-90% range. and that's just one combination. Over the course of the day their will be many foods that contribute to amino acid profile. So this is probably why other platforms don't talk about this because it's mostly a non issue.

    Great, informative video as always, but let's be honest people are not having issues with lack of protein...but rather over-consumption of it. The modern society is so obsessed with protein people think every meal needs to be high in it. But the reality is, the human body doesn't need a lot of protein, very little in fact, and i daresay even athletes exaggerate it quite a bit, most of it is going down in the toilet anyway. From my experience, even during heavy physical labor work...the least protein i eat the better i feel and perform, and focusing more on carbs, fiber instead.
    Even when weightlifting here and there, minimal protein has worked best, any more and i feel sluggish, as in, less energy and stamina.

      Legumes have a high TPD (true protein digestibility) score of nearly 90%. This video is misleading I think as it implies you only absorb a small amount of the protein. The DIASS score measures both the amino acid profile and digestibilty. The amino acid profile is easily improved by combining a few different plant foods which is how people typically eat anyway. This video only makes sense if you eat only one food and nothing else. For example rice and beans combined can be up to 85% wheras their DIASS score individually is much lower.
