Ok, I have proteins covered, I eat 3 eggs every morning and I snack on nuts, etc etc. What else should I be eating? I tend to eat alot of banana on toast and pasta, if I want to get serious about my muscle building, are these foods ok?
The statement that plant foods do not contain all eight amino acids is INCORRECT. All plant foods contain all EAAs, but not in the perfect ratio for building human protein. Nuts, seeds and grains, for example, are high in methionine, but low in lysine, while legumes are high in lysine, but low in methionine. There is absolutely no need to combine foods at the same meal. A diet that includes legumes, whole grains, nuts, seeds, veggies and fruits will supply all EEAs in perfect proportion.
@marcdaddy33 i would like to see some proof of this before i make up my mind. If you could point me to some legitimate evidence to support this theory I would much appreciate it.
@MrNiloc88 hi, i was wondering the same thing, so i asked a boxing trainer at work, and also a guy who's heavily into bodybuilding this question and they both said no more than 7 eggs per week. Sources online are all over the place ranging from 2 per week to 3 per day. But if you average it out, it looks like 1 egg per day is a pretty safe bet. I know that sucks because a single egg is just 6 grams of protein,

tofu and other soy products are a good source of protein

I'm good. I like to avoid soy as much as possible. Don't need anything that diminishes my testosterone count and increases my estrogen.

@TheRogueMonk Kidney beans aren't a complete protein. Eat some rice or noodles with them. :)

How much eggs can we eat a day?
Do you think eating 6 eggs a day is too much?
