In this #webinar, Dr Pol Grootswagers from Wageningen University discussed the role of plant protein in ageing, focusing on quality. It has been discovered that while plant protein often have lower quality, potentially leading to muscle mass and bone mineral density loss, smart combinations of plant food can achieve high protein quality. Dr Grootswagers' team developed the Meal Protein Quality Score, which evaluates meal quality by considering protein combinations, digestibility, amino acid patterns and timing, and the Alpha Tool, a webtool that calculates the quality of plant-rich meals.

would be interesting to deconstruct the traditional Okinawan diet or vegan Seventh Day Adventist and compare the amino acid profiles against the conclusions. Might help point to weaknesses in the studies.

Dr Pol words fit into what others I have heard by many respectable scientists \ PHd holders on utube; meaning yes you can live on plants alone but the proteins in plants are not has high a quality as animal protein.

Hi! Great presentation by Dr Grootswagers. A question on another note, I got an email that your Matt Kaeberlein interview here was uploaded. But I can´t find it? Thanks

10:49 -- That graph does not account for all the extra plants that will be needed to grow more food for the worlds population, unless plants grow in the sky? Yes you might reduce the pastures acreage but the ground will still be needed to grow plants, if this ground will grow plants... And the beat goes on.

My vegan friends are not doing so well. They all are skinny and no muscle. Good luck in your assumptions
