Plant protein vs Animal protein - what builds more muscle?
Plant protein is often overlooked when it comes to building muscle due to the misconception that animal protein is superior. However, this is simply not true.
Plant protein can be just as effective as animal protein, and in some cases, even more beneficial for muscle growth and overall health.
One of the key advantages of plant protein is that it is typically lower in saturated fat and higher in fibre than animal protein. This means that plant protein sources can provide the body with the necessary nutrients to support muscle growth without the negative effects of consuming high amounts of saturated fat.
Moreover, plant-based protein sources like lentils, chickpeas, and beans often come with additional health benefits. For example, legumes are rich in vitamins, minerals, and fibre, which can help regulate digestion, promote heart health, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancer.
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein, and they are essential for muscle growth and repair. While it's true that some plant-based foods are lower in certain amino acids than animal-based foods, it's easy to get a complete set of amino acids from a plant-based diet by eating a variety of plant protein sources.
Some studies have even suggested that plant protein may be better for building muscle than animal protein. For example, a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that when it comes to muscle protein synthesis, there is no significant difference between plant-based protein and animal-based protein.
