These are ways Vegetarians and Vegans Can Eat For Muscle Building
My past article on eating clean sums up simple nutrition guidelines for you. Then again, I got an email from a vegetarian in need of some tips.
For sure, Protein is one of the highly vital "macro nutrients" you need to build muscle and to help you get well from your strength training. Majority of specialists recommend at least 1g per pound of bodyweight each day.
But most of the opinion for getting protein involves consuming stuff vegetarians and vegans can't - if that describes you, read this article for muscle building nutrition advice for vegetarians and vegans...
How Do Vegetarians & Vegans Eat?
Nearly everyone consume a lot of vegetables, legumes, fruits, tofu and soy. Several kinds eat eggs & dairy products too. But no animal flesh (meat, fish or poultry).
* Lacto-ovo Vegetarians. Consumes dairy and egg products, but does not eat beef, pork, poultry, fish, shellfish or animal flesh of any kind.
* Lacto Vegetarians. Eat dairy, but no eggs and no animal flesh.
* Ovo Vegetarians (or eggetarians). Eat eggs, but not animal flesh and dairy products.
* Vegans. Does not use or consume animal products of any kind.
Teething Troubles You'll Come Across With Vegeterianism & Veganism.
Vegetables and fruits are great for vitamins, minerals and fiber. Green vegetables are also good since they boost your alkalinity levels and stabilize acidic foods like meat. Here's a few "problems" you'll run into eating like this though:
* Allergic reactions - As a consequence you can smash into lactose intolerance, acne, or other allergic reactions from all the dairy food if everything you eat is eggs and dairy products for protein
Low Testosterone - meats, eggs, and dairy products have saturated fat and cholesterol which boost testosterone. If your T levels are at a low level you'll have a smaller amount of muscle, less strength, less energy, lagging libido, higher body fat, and less of an "ambition"
High-quality Sources of Protein for Vegeterians & Vegans
It's simple when you're lacto and/or ovo. Just don't consume meat and follow my other eating nutritious rules to get your protein: whey protein, cheese, eggs, milk, and so on. If you're vegan, there's a few extra sources of protein:
* Beans. Lima, mungo, winged, fava, kidney, hummus, garbanzo, black ...
* Legumes. Lentils, peas, cow peas, chick pea, snow peas
* Whole Grains. Brown rice, oats, quinoa, granola, breads
* Protein Powder. Hemp protein, soy protein, rice protein ...
* Milk. Soy milk, rice milk, plant milk, coconut milk, almond milk ...
* Soy. Soy cheese, deli-style soy meats, soy milk, soy beans, tofu ...
* Nuts. Cashew, peanuts, peanut butter, walnuts, almonds ...
