It is my understanding that with the exception of soy, there are no non-animal source foods that contrain a complete essential amino acid profile. If this is the case i would very much like to know what EAA's are missing from bodybuilding foods such as oatmeal(4g of protein per serving), Almonds(9g of protein per serving) and Natural peanut butter(also 9g of protein per serving on the current one im using). I know somebody will probably acuse me of extreme over analizing with this post and i would actully agree with them, because im posing this question as much out of curiosity as i am about functionality. Although i will admit, i have always counted the proteins found in these and other foods towards my daily total, and if they are devoid of leucine or something i'll admit that i will be slightly disturbed lol XD. Thank you.
