[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]White pasta has little nutritive value.  The protein in white pasta is not accessed by the body alone (just like the protein in rice needs something like beans to compete it.  Butter is not a healthy fat; it is saturated as is cheese.[/quote]

^^^ this person has been reading "nutrition" blogs.  Or perhaps seeing a $150-an-hour bethesda "nutritionist."

All of my high-incomed, triathloning acquaintances are now experts! And they all sound the same. [/quote]

It's your choice to be retarded but it's true. If you are not getting all the essential amino acids, then the protein you are consuming is processed like a carb. Which is why vegans have a hard time building muscle without a lot of planning.[/quote]

It is a myth that you need all the essential amino acids in the same meal, or even the same day.  A small amount of meat or dairy protein will go along way to helping maximize protein from grains.

Vegans may have difficulty getting enough food to build muscles for body building purposes, simply because it is hard to eat a ton of protein just from plant foods.   The food fills them up, it is too bulky. Animal proteins have no fiber so you can eat more of them before filling up.  So they do have to think about food intake if they are trying to gain muscles for body building or athetic purposes, but not because they have to carefully combine amino acids -- that theory went out about 20 years ago.

Also went away -- the R word.   Stop using it.
