  Wrong. Plants are protein. They eat some beans and grains that have lysine and methionine amino acids which are lower in plants.

  Those protein powders the brahs eat are from plants.

    A lot of the bro powders use whey protein which is a dairy product.

      All living life on this planet is made of protein.

      All protein is bioavailable and digested into amino acids, which are then used to build human protein. Most plants lack methionine and lysine, which is abundant in meats, but also some plants.

      I get that people are Joe Rogan educated and like to read the brightly colored plastic tubs, but a little biochemistry won’t hurt you.

        Its fascinating how much effort some people put into writing complete bullshit in a fancy way. Or maybe its a bot? Probably is…

        But just to make sure noone parrots this bullshit: Carbohydrates, fat, minerals, water are all NOT protein and they make up a much larger fraction of most living organisms than protein. Just because most plants contains at least 1% protein doesnt mean it will satisfy the human need for it.
