Indian vegetarian food does not have animal protein except for dairy products, but there are many high protein vegetarian dishes that can help, if used on a regular basis.
Indian food is infamous for being low on protein, especially vegetarian. The truth, however, is that most people are unaware of the high protein vegetarian food which is found in many cuisines in India. So let’s break this myth that high protein vegetarian food is impossible.
While looking at protein from vegetarian sources, you should also remember that consuming one source of a plant is not enough, because unlike animal proteins, plant proteins do not have all the nine amino acids (part of a protein)essential for the human body in any one source.
