Video: Animal Protein vs. Plant-Based Protein
Dr. Michael Greger discusses a public health case for modernizing the definition of protein quality.
Doctor’s Notes:
The benefits of calorie restriction may arise from the drop in animal protein intake. See Caloric Restriction vs. Animal Protein Restriction for more on this.
I also discuss branched chain amino acids in Are BCAA (Branched Chain Amino Acids) Healthy?
Do you need to combine plant proteins, like rice and beans? See The Protein Combining Myth.
How much protein do we need? See Do Vegetarians Get Enough Protein?

As far as plant concerned one might get worried about the ways we feed with the plants. Organic materials are more influential since chemicals are sources of hazards in health and environment. So comparisons must be extended to cover 3 categories, rather than 2 only: animals, traditional plants, and organic plants.
