Protein Myth & Raw Foods part 1 #19

http://therawfoodmuscle.com/ OK guys it's time to break down the Protein Myth. Some some people think protein can only come from meat, eggs, dairy or whey, and that without eating at least some of those foods, they won't get enough. Actually every living cell contains protein, especially plants/vegetables, seeds, nuts, seaweeds and algae. It is reported that for humans to stay healthy we need
about 6.5% of our daily calories to come from protein. In the raw, fruits contain 5%, vegetables contain 20-50%, and sprouted seeds/nuts contain 10-25% of their calories from protein. So if you are eating a raw food lifestyle, you are getting more than enough protein. Scientific studies show
the daily need for protein is around 25-35 grams per day. If you eat 2,000 calories per day on a raw plant foods lifestyle that had an average of 10% of their calories from protein, 200 calories would be protein (or 50 grams), more than an adequate amount. As a matter of fact, your body doesn't use whole proteins, it has to break them down into amino acids. Plant proteins break down for assimilation more quickly than animal proteins and they are typically found already in the amino acid form. Cows, horses, deers, elephants, and gorillas are natural vegetarians. Does anyone ever wonder where they get all their muscle and body mass from? Grass, leafy greens, and in the case of the gorilla, fruit! The meat and dairy industries spend millions on advertising trying to convince people the only way to get protein is from meat and dairy products, and they are obviously very successful. Your body needs 22 amino acids in order to build protein molecules and muscles. Of the 22 amino acids, there are 8 that the body
cannot make and has to get from outside sources. All the 8 amino acids are available in raw plant foods, plus they are in a form, which is easily assimilated into the body. All the protein needed by your body can be received from raw nuts, seeds, vegetables and fruits. http://therawfoodmuscle.com/

I do 78g protein shakes(2 shakes a day) and with food around 40 on top so around 120 grams of protein a day my weight is 90kg, am i ok to take that much??

[RawFoodMuscle]

@lay4life I think that is more than enough to get the job done. Just make sure you are using your weight in muscle mass and subtract your percentage of total fat and use that for your total protein intake. I go into this more in episode #100 part 1 and 2

I mean keep doing what youre doing if its working for you, I just don't think everything youre saying is correct, but whatever

[RawFoodMuscle]

@starvingarvin I am not the only one who has been able to build muscle from raw foods. I have been lifting weights for over 20 years and I used to think meat and eggs where the best way to build muscle. But now I know from experience that raw foods such as sprouts, spinach and kale can give me the same if not better results then meat. I know this is hard to understand, I was the same way until I tried and felt how much energy and strength I gained. Thanks for watching.........Much Respect

RawFoodMuscle,

Please don't continue to pretend to have any idea that you know what you are talking about. It isn't helpful to anyone and is actually probably damaging to those who watch and don't know any better. If you do actually think you are correct, just stop and think about how much you are kidding yourself.

@starvingarvin I am living proof that I know what I am talking about.
