Default Protein in diet..?

This macronutrient is essential for building lean body mass, and contributes to normal bodily functions. It is essential for health. Protein also helps contribute to satiation and sustained energy. Protein sources include lean meats, eggs, fish, nuts, soy products like tofu, and legumes. For years nutritionists believed getting protein from vegetable sources like legumes and soy, required combining them with whole grains
so that your body would get a complete protein. However, recent statistics show there is little danger of protein deficiency in a plant food diet. Rip Esselstyn, author of Engine 2 Diet goes as far as to say there is no such thing as protein deficiency. Protein should make up anywhere from 20 to 40% of your diet.
