Our requirements for protein isn't as high as claimed by the majority of the fitness industry or actually meat & dairy industry. Read the PCRM article about protein I posted further above, it has more info about this. PCRM is a group of doctors and other medical experts. Where are you based? If you live in a region where you can't survive without meat or dairy then you've got to do what you have to do to survive. My comments are mainly geared towards regions where the majority of people consume meat & dairy because of taste pleasure, not because they need it to survive. |

I find most research on the the topic to be of dubious quality. I know that when I have more protein in my diet I feel less hungry for longer and I eat overall less calories. Also I've been working out for couple of years with little to show for it. I worry sometimes that maybe low protein diet is a, or the, reason for that.

I live in a smaller, rather conservative city where it's hard to find anything but local cuisine.

I don't need it to survive. And it is something that I want to do. I just don't know how and I'm not able to find any useful resources.
