protein

[Guest guest]

To those who say a vegan diet won't have enough protein, here are some numbers

from McDougall:

 

PERCENT OF CALORIES FOUND AS PROTIENS;

almonds 12

kidney beans 26

brussel sprouts 21

cabbage 17

carrots 10

corn 12

grapefruit 8

oatmeal 16

oranges 8

peanuts 18

potatoes 42

brown rice 11

sweet potatoes 6

tofu 34

tomatoes 16

 

Of course, carrots don't have many calories in the first place, but ten percent

of them are protein. Grapefruit and oranges even get in the picture.
