Protiens that count

[dago]

I know a lot of guys don't count the protien they take in for some foods like what little is in oatmeal and other things. I was eating a BB-Q chicken sandwich on wheat buns and I always read the nutrition label on everything and there were 6 grams protien per bun and I ate 2 so thats 12 grams. If I don't count these as protien shouldn't I atleast count them as calories? I mean they should count for something

you have proteins that are complete and incomplete. Also known as the essential proteins. Eating animal products have all essential proteins. The rest are incomplete therefore you body cannot gain the full amino acid profile and just comes out through urine and fecal matter.

Everything you eat and drink should be counted as calories. That one glass of orange juice in the morning is full of calories. You have to be mindful of what you're putting in.

I disagree.

You need complete proteins, but the fact that vegetable proteins are incomplete does not detract from the fact that they have amino acids that the body can use to build muscle.

I would count vegetable proteins just like animal proteins.

I agree that vegetable's have certain amino acids that animals meat does not contain. Are they helpful? Of course.

its a good idea to have an adequate amount of both animal and plant proteins because they each are healthy in their own way.

I think you got that backwards.

Great thread, what about beans? i'm chilling at my parents eating some of my momma's soup beans are these a complete protien? I know they have lots of carbs and fiber... they taste great good country cooking...

beans are incomplete proteins. However, if you mix it with rice, you get the complete protein package.
