Evaluation of protein intake and protein quality in New Zealand vegans (IMAGE)
Caption
Variation in vegan dietary patterns and their influence on total protein intake and protein quality using a story of three vegans. Mandy demonstrates the most balanced approach of achieving both high total protein intake and protein quality. Jerry, on the other hand, meets his protein intake but his diet falls short on protein quality. Sandy represents a common pattern observed in our cohort, and her existing diet fails in meeting both protein quantity and protein quality. In summary, our findings show a high protein intake alone does not always guarantee adequate protein quality.
