Protein shakes are a popular way to get your daily protein, or make sure you are getting enough, as they are quick and convenient for many. However.. the Protein Shake is just for references, as, as this picture shows, there's also an amazingly abundant source of high proteins from whole foods like quinoa, lentils, beans, nuts, seeds, nutritional yeast.

A lot of information out there pushes dairy, meat, fish sources for protein. This posts aims to show that you have many plant based options as well

I am not Vegan, but I have friends who are, and they are often questioned if they are eating enough protein ?! So this post just shows a fraction of the wholefoods protein sources available!

A minimum 0.36g of Protein is recommended per pound of body weight. Your daily protein needs though truly depend on your body type and fitness goal
