It has a unique surplus of two amino acids, methionine and tryptophan, which are usually lacking in popular vegetable protein foods. Buying If purchasing hulled sesame seeds, purchase only those that have had their hulls mechanically removed. If the hulled seeds are not organic, you can assume that caustic lye was used to dehull them, thus denaturing nutrients and flavor. According to Paul Pitchford, overuse of hulled sesame seeds and hulled sesame products like tahini may contribute to liver and gallbladder stagnation. The whole seed is the healthful choice.

Bromelain is an enzyme from pineapple and is available as a supplement; it too has mild anti-inflammatory effects, and aids digestion of vegetable protein in the gastrointestinal tract. Vigorous workouts cause muscle and tissue irritation and inflammation, which can lead to soreness after exercise. This is commonly due to lactic acid buildup and free-radical formation. Antioxidant nutrients, more water, and some anti-inflammatory nutrients and herbs may help reduce some of that soreness when it is bothersome.
Protein combination, or complementarity, suggests (this is a theory) that we mix two or more vegetable protein foods at a meal so as to provide sufficient levels of all the essential amino acids. Usually one or two of these amino acids may be low in each food, and mixing them at the same meal will mean that our body has what it needs to make new proteins. However, it is important that the vegetarian eats sufficient calories so that the body does not use the proteins for fuel instead of its many other functions.
A diet high in animal protein can raise LDL, whereas eating a higher percentage of vegetable protein helps to lower it. Sufficient fiber in the diet, particularly from the legumes, vegetables, and fruits (such as apples that contain pectin), helps in lowering LDL as well. With regard to nutrition and cancer (our second most prevalent deadly adult disease), it is likely that more than 50 percent (probably more) of cancer occurrences are related at least in part to diet.
Soy protein isolate—texturized vegetable protein (TVP). Soybeans have become a major commercial crop. When soybean oil is extracted, what is left is a high-protein residue that can be processed to make soy protein isolate. This protein powder can be used in milk-free formulas for infants and in protein-powder formulas for weight loss, weight gain, or body building. Soy isolate may also be used in soups, sauces, gravies, flavorings, seasonings, artificial bacon bits, cereals, frozen desserts, and meat substitutes.

Instead, they might list textured protein, hydrolyzed protein, hy-drolyzed vegetable protein, yeast food, sodium or calcium caseinate, or natural flavors—all of which contain significant amounts of MSG. And watch out for any foods that come with flavor packets. They usually contain MSG, too." So read labels carefully. Steer clear of processed foods and fast food, instead building your diet around whole grains and fresh fruits and vegetables. And if you know you'll be eating in an Asian restaurant, call ahead and ask if they use MSG.

The produce section is also where you will find excellent vegetable protein sources, such as tofu and tempeh, low-fat salad dressings, and fresh vegetable and fruit juices. Buying Organic—Is It Better? Although it's difficult to determine whether organic produce is more nutritious, certified organic produce should contain less pesticide residue. The effects of long-term ingestion of pesticide residue is inconclusive, but it is always advisable to minimize your exposure to it when you can.

And at the time of Dr. Olney's report, even baby foods contained relatively large doses of MSG. Mothers, unaware of the danger to their children, were delighted to see their little ones eating so well. Because MSG and hydrolyzed protein are such powerful taste enhancers, they make most foods, even the bland ones, taste scrumptious. The discovery by Dr. Olney was particularly important because the hypothalamus plays such an important role in controlling so many areas of the body.

In monkeys, the propanediol compound induced anemia, increased white blood cell count and other blood changes following ingestion of 30 mg per kg of body weight a day for six weeks. It also reduced fertility in male rats and caused malignant and gene-damaging effects in cells in laboratory dishes. The propanediol also did the same in mouse cells in laboratory dishes. In more recent experiments in which rats were fed 1.1 to 28 mg per kg of body weight per day of either one of the compounds, the animals developed cancers of the testes, breast, and tongue among others.
