Complete Protein

For decades, we have been told meat and dairy protein is complete, and vegetables protein is incomplete. That vegetarians, especially vegans, must eat a combination of foods at each meal to obtain compete protein. By complete, they mean provides all 9 essential amino acids. Our bodies do not use protein directly. Protein is needed to supple amino acids the body cannot make.

As it turns out ALL proteins are complete, but some foods provide more essential amino acids than others.
