Why Plant Protein Is Healthier Than Animal Protein | Dr. Garth Davis | Mastering Diabetes
Published at : March 24, 2022
The best sources of protein are plants which are rich in fiber and phytonutrients. Even so, Dr. Garth Davis has more to say about why plant protein is better than animal protein. He also shares how much protein do you really need, and why plant protein is never incomplete.
It's easy to agree on one thing here. Dr. Garth has never seen a single person who ate a normal amount of calories and yet was protein deficient. But he's seen thousands of people who were fiber deficient. Come to think about the cultures in the world that enjoy the longest, healthiest lives — the Blue Zones. They eat only about 7% of their calories from protein. They're strong living proof that extra protein does not make you stronger and it definitely does not make you thinner.
Animal protein does give you extra calories. But there's also evidence that it could contribute to cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and aging. How so? Eating animal protein means consuming saturated fat, heme iron, and other toxic byproducts.
