What’s The Best Protein To Eat?

What’s The Best Protein To Eat?

Q: What’s the best protein to eat? That’s it, that’s my question. I’m not going to state whether I want to know what’s the best protein to eat to lose weight, or to build muscle, or for after a workout, or for breakfast, or before bed, or blah blah blah. Absolutely none of that! I’m going to leave it to your imagination to figure out exactly what I want to know.

A: First and foremost, allow me to express my gratitude to you for being vague and not doing me any favors so I can better know how to serve you. You’ve essentially made my job that much harder, and for that you deserve the laurels I’m now heaping on you.

Expressing gratitude is the en vogue thing to do nowadays, so with me jumping on the bandwagon and getting that out of the way, let us now proceed.

*ahem*

I don’t feel like having to expend that much energy to come up with an imaginative response, so I’m just going to speak in general terms. For the most part, protein is protein. As such, as long as the total protein count of everything you eat meets your daily needs, you can eat whatever the fuck you want, regardless of your goal.

That’s what I’d tell you just to brush you off, but if I really wanted to put some effort into a reply, then I might say something different.

Yeah, were I in the mood to do some real work here, I might say that the best protein to eat comes down to a matter of quality, with some sources offering more bang than others because not all protein is equal.

No, your mind isn’t deceiving you. I most certainly said “protein is protein” a few sentences ago. But get it straight, I also couched it by saying “for the most part”!!!

Protein from animal sources supply all of the essential amino acids, making them complete proteins. It’s in part due to this that most animal proteins rank higher than plant proteins on various quality ratings of digestion and bioavailibility because plant proteins are often missing essential amino acids.

So I’d tell you to eat more meat, fish, and eggs and less quinoa and buckwheat if I were in the mood to tell you such a thing, which I’m clearly not!!!

Neither am I in the mood to provide you with a list of protein sources that you can look for that you won’t have to get a third job, sell an organ, or whore yourself out to furries to pay for.

Yeah, I’d tell you all of that shit but I’m not gonna!

Now, any more wackadoo questions?
