One reason variety is important, our body doesn’t process “protein”. We process amino acids (found in all foods) and convert them into protein.
When we eat complete animal protein, our bodies have to break it down (protein catabolism).
We don’t get protein just by eating protein. Just as we don’t get collagen by consuming collagen. Our bodies make our own by consuming a large variety of amino acids.

Nonsense. Plant proteins are also complete. Reported for misinfornation.

I never said they didn’t. Just pointing out that the reference to meat as protein is misleading, as eating complete proteins isn’t the key. The key is consuming a variety of amino acids (which are found predominantly in plants). Reported for harassment

My area doesn’t have the nice Asian markets and the grocery stores do not carry much in the way of soy. Currently I do have lentils, quinoa and mung beans I struggle to find tasty ways to serve

He says meat (limit red meat) beef, chicken, pork seafood, salmon, cod has omega 3, salmon has 5 times more omega 3 as cod.. plants: beans, legumes, tree nuts, seeds like pumpkin, sesame, etc, ..a study with people who eat plant proteins have lower risk of premature death by 5%… by shifting diet 3% from animals to plants resulted in 10% decrease in death for men and women. Plants have polyphenols, increase stem cells and gut health, lower inflammation and better immunity ..Top choices beans, (tofu and soy foods, natto for phytoestrogen, edamame, tofu skins, soy beans for less cancer, soy milk better than dairy which traps polyphenols) quinoa, lentils are high fiber, good protein, seafood shellfish for omega 3, help stem cells, peptides for wound healing.  DON’T fry foods. DON’T overeat.
Summary: beans and lentils, tofu and soy, quinoa, fish and shell fish, nuts and seeds, …he left out mushrooms and seaweeds.
After age 40 stay active, exercise, add protein to avoid muscle mass

Eggs!!! Very high in protein, lutein for the eyes.  Sardines very high in Vit D and omega 3.

I’m surprised you didn’t mention choosing organic and not GMO products. Almost all soybean products are GMO  and one needs to buy only organic soy products. Why didn’t you mention that?

He assumes organic if you follow him.

I wish Dr Li would address the carnivorous diet. How come the people who eat meat only don't get constipated and they say that they lose weight. How is this possible??? I get constipated if I go one day without plant based fibre!? Please explain!
