I've heard that soy is bad for you unless it's fermented as in tofu.
I don't like dairy because of the cruelty factor in commercial dairy enterprise. If I had my own cow, or had access to small-scale dairy farms where quality and humanity are more important than quantity and profit. I agree with you though that it is important for maintaining balance.

Eggs are interesting but from an ethical stand-point I see nothing wrong with eating the eggs my friend's chickens lay in her backyard. The chicken is going to make eggs regardless whether they're fertilized or not, I figure.
Interesting to hear about the tandoor. Myself, I'm a sucker for anything paneer... Mmmm, paneer... *insert drooly smiley here* Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=32900

This thread is about protein sources. So we don't want to go in the direction of a debate about cruelty to animals. A gentle comment only. But the topic of eating meat tends to ignite quickly and one word leads to another. The intent of the thread starting article was to take a look at protein sources. Thanks. |

Whole grains are an important source of protein, but the queen of the whole grain when it comes to protein, quinoa. Unlike many sources of vegetable protein, quinoa contains all the essential amino acids, making its a complete protein. |

A handful of mixed nuts covers pretty much anything you need from animal sources but you do need a variety as each type differs.
