The Exam Room by the Physicians Committee
Health & Fitness:Nutrition
Protein can be found in the foods you’d least expect.
Nutrition researcher Christopher Gardner, PhD, explains that virtually all fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes contain all 20 amino acids that are the building blocks for the protein your body needs to function at a high level. Those options are widely believed to be healthier cholesterol-free options than what are considered traditional protein sources.
Gardner also compares the quality of protein found in various sources and why getting enough is like a big game of scrabble.
He joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast to share his findings and a new view on protein.
This episode was recorded at the International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine in Washington, DC.
