RE:plant protein is no a complete protein

RE:plant protein is no a complete proteinThere are 20 amino acids in protein.  Ten of these are essential, meaning that the human body is unable to synthesize them.

A single-source plant-based protein, say using beans only, doesn't contain all essential amino acids. That's why vegetarians and vegans, and plant-based protein companies, know they need to obtain their protein from multiple sources or add supplemental essential amino acids.

This isn't anything new. Vegetarians have known this since before anybody knew what an amino acid is. ichimokutrader would like you to believe that this company is doomed to fail because they haven't done this most basic research.  I don't know their recipe, but there is no way they'd still be here with an incomplete protein. 

Try another tactic. I'm not selling. The party is just warming up.
