Hey all,
Had a thought. I'm sure many of you have read that certain foods proteins are more "complete" than others, with Eggs being close to 100% complete. Meat being (for arguments sake) 70%, and veges being much lower, to the point where you have to combine them with other foods such that amino acid combinations work together.
E.G. Vegetable A - Had Amino acids 1,2,3, and 4 while Vegetable B has amino acids 5, 6,7 & 8 . SO, if you eat them both at the same time then you get a complete protein!
OR, chicken apparantly is still only (say) 70% complete.
1. How does work when trying to get my 1g/lb of lean body mass of protein. Lets say I need 140grams of protein per day. Is that 140g or COMPLETE protein. i.e. should I go, (amount of protein x %complete = effective protein taken?)
2. What happens to the uncomplete portion of the protein, is it just burnt as energy with not real contribution, in other words, would I have been better off taking carbs?
3. Is it worth aiming (at everymeal) to combine foods so that all the protein is "Complete" ? So pair foods together?
Thoughts?
