India has a large population of people who follow a vegetarian diet. Some of them may feel that they are not getting enough protein because of this. However, there are several plants, fruits, vegetables and other foods that are protein rich. Some natural sources of protein are Tofu, tempeh, edamame, Lentils, Chickpeas, Peanuts, Almonds, Spirulina, Quinoa, Mycoproteins, Chia seeds, Hemp seeds, Beans with rice, Potatoes, dark-coloured leafy greens and vegetables. Some of these foods may not be readily available to everyone and this is when a supplementary option is helpful, like Amway protein powder.

The Importance of Protein in Your Diet

Proteins are important for building up of tissue, muscles and cells in the body. Proteins also provide essential amino acids that are required for metabolism, growth & development, at all life stages and for any lifestyle. Children need protein for growth & development. Adults also need protein to build, repair & maintain tissues, and to support bones, skin & hair health. The elderly especially require protein to support muscle tone, bone mass and strength. We need to regularly replenish protein in our body as it gets used up. According to ICMR, adults need approximately 1g protein per kg of body weight every day. The plant-based protein powder from Amway India, provides the daily requirement of protein for your body.
