Which foods are good examples of complementary proteins?

Solution:

To include complementary proteins in a vegetarian or vegan diet there are many different ways. Some of them are written here of food pairings that provide complementary proteins:

•soups or stews that include legumes and grains

•salads made with beans and nuts or seeds

•a peanut butter sandwich on whole-grain bread

•hummus with whole-wheat pita bread

•tofu or tempeh with brown rice or quinoa

•tofu stir-fry with whole-grain noodles and peanuts

•beans and brown rice

•yogurt with sunflower seeds or almonds

cellular respiration oxidizes food into energy in the form of atps.

glycolysis (6 c hexose) > 2x atps are used > 6c hexose biphosphate > 2 x 3c triphosphate >

2 x 3c pyruvate (2x nadh produced from nad) and (4x atp produced)

pyruvate actively pumped mitochondrial matrix.
