Protein-rich foods from animals
- They may have more saturated fatty acids (beef and dairy especially)
- They may have more omega-3 fatty acids (fish especially)
- They donāt contain any fiber or carbohydrates.
- They tend to be very high in protein.
If you need a lot of protein in your diet, meat is a great way to satisfy that need.

āPlant proteinā
Plant-based protein sources don't have as much protein. You can get enough protein through a plant-based diet, as long as it is well balanced.Ā Plant-based protein sources:
- They often contain fiber (especially legumes and whole grains).
- If they contain fat, they are often rich in āgoodā fats (for example, the omega-3ās in nuts).
- They contain plenty of starch as well, so itās impossible to follow a low-carb diet if thatās a priority for you.

Your overall diet
If your diet consists of the same narrow food groups, it will not be a proper diet, regardless if you eat a plant or animal-based protein. If you eat a strict vegan diet, you will need to supplement Vitamin B12.
Look at the entire meal you end up with, and how that affects everything else you eat.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
