does it matter where my protein comes from?
right now i'm gettin it from tuna, chicken, eggs, and whey protein and that is it. does it matter???
i don't like red meat mainly because it's costly and it's fatty
if it does matter could you please list some reasons why?
thank you

i'm postin this in several forums because i don't know where it goes

True that. Different kinds digest at different paces though. Whey jumps right into your system while casien will spread evenly for like 7 hours. Egg and soy go somewhere inbetween those two.

Animal Proteins (meat): all amino acids are present to make a complete protein
Plant Proteins: do not have all amino acids to make a complete protein (w/ exception of soy)
Also, different types of proteins have different rates of absorbtion in the body.
Whey: Fast absorbing
Cassien: Slow absorbing (found in milk)
These are just some of the basics but look up the articles on bb.com to learn how to use different types of protein to your advantage at different times.
For example:
Drink whey immediately after your workout to quickly absorb protein into your body.
Drink milk before bed so you can absorb protien while you sleep.
Here is a good article that covers a lot of info on different types of proteins: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/topicoftheweek84.htm"The best inspiration is not to outdo others but to outdo ourselves."
