    My only issue is what claims do you have that various plant based proteins are inferior to milk? Protein is made from amino acids and you can ge those amino acids in various foods including every single vegetable beyond what is found in fruits (lower on protein scale), legumes, seeds, nuts and whole grains. An amino acid is an amino acid, regardless of the source.

    AFAIK plant sources have different amino acid profiles than meat sources. Feel free to verify.

    They do but eating a mix should provide someone with all the required amino acids. I'm just not sure why milk would be considered 'better' unless someone says it has the perfect amino acid profile. That doesn't mean someone couldn't get all the proper amounts of amino acids eating plant based protein sources.

    Haven't looked into it fully cause I just eat (and drink milk) it all. I feel like this has served me well so far.

    Sorry but this is a beginner's guide... I could have phrased it better sure, I'm just glad it was the only issue really "bad" about it.

    I just wanted to point it out because people seem generally confused about macronutrients, especially protein.
