REPOST @theblendergirl \\ TOP PLANT-BASED PROTEINS: There are 20 proteins in our bodies, and 9 of them are "essential" to our diets, since our bodies can’t manufacture them. “Complete proteins” contain— in varying amounts—all of the 9 essential amino acids. Don't forget leafy greens, broccoli, artichokes, corn, avocado and other fruits and veggies that can also contribute to your protein intake. // More details in my new book: Protein from Plants by @heathernicholds
