Plant protein refers to protein derived from plant-based sources such as legumes (beans, lentils, peas), grains (wheat, rice, oats), nuts (almonds, walnuts, cashews), seeds (chia seeds, flaxseeds, hemp seeds), and soy products (tofu, tempeh, edamame). These protein sources are rich in essential amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein necessary for various bodily functions including muscle repair and growth, enzyme production, and immune function. Plant protein is a key component of vegetarian and vegan diets, and it can also be incorporated into omnivorous diets as a healthier and more sustainable alternative to animal-based protein sources.
