Legumes can replace meat, but not all are equal: how much protein is in each of these foods, from beans to green peas

It is advisable to include all kinds of legumes in your diet during Lent, especially Lent. These products are an excellent source of plant protein, one of the best in a lean diet. Therefore, unless you have contraindications, it is best to eat them every day to get enough protein.

In addition to vegetable protein, legumes contain other beneficial nutrients: folic acid, potassium, iron, magnesium. They also contain healthy fats and soluble and insoluble fiber.

We tell you what types of legumes exist and why they are useful.

Great Northern Beans

In ½ cup. beans contain 9.7 g of protein. This product helps increase your metabolic rate. Beans are good for those who suffer from cramps, as they contain more potassium than a medium-sized banana.

Well suited for making bean salad, main courses and even smoothies. You can also make a puree from this product, which can be added to soup as a thickener.

Lentils

There are red, green, yellow, brown and even black lentils. However, the latter type is rare. Green lentils are unripe lentils; they contain the most protein and are not overcooked. Red lentils are ripened; they cook quickly because they do not have a shell. Yellow - also without a shell, this is one variety with green grains, it was simply peeled and polished. Finally, brown - ripened lentils in a shell. Black is a special, rather rare and expensive variety, distinguished by a rich aroma.

Lentils are very beneficial for the cardiovascular system; they help cleanse blood vessels of cholesterol, prevent blood clots, and reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack.

Any type of lentil contains a lot of B vitamins, which has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the nervous system and mood. In addition, this group of vitamins is very useful for the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract. Its work is improved due to the large amount of fiber. Dietary fiber also speeds up metabolism and helps remove toxins.

Lentil porridge is recommended for those who suffer from diabetes, because thanks to complex carbohydrates it satisfies for a long time and does not increase blood sugar levels.

Lentils are easy to prepare. It is recommended to soak only green lentils before cooking, and change the water before cooking, as the first ones turn black. Keep in mind that green, unlike red and yellow, does not boil into porridge, so it is best used for salads and soups.

Many people think of it as a nut, but in fact, peanuts are legumes. It contains about 26% protein, only soy contains more. Peanuts also have a lot of fat, about 60%, which makes them similar to nuts. Peanuts, like nuts, contain polyunsaturated fatty acids, which we will miss due to the lack of meat and milk, but it is better not to eat peanuts separately and in large quantities, but to combine them with vegetables, since the product is indeed very fatty. You can use peanut oil, which retains all the beneficial substances contained in peanuts: vitamins B, E, D, pantothenic acid, biotin, glutenins. Peanuts are also rich in antioxidants.

Pearl barley

Cereals made from barley, which was considered one of the first “domesticated” cereals, is a leader in the content of fiber, vitamins, and microelements. The protein it contains is rich in amino acids necessary to maintain skin elasticity and protect against wrinkles. Eating barley prevents anemia, inflammatory processes in the intestines and stomach ulcers (a decoction helps well). This porridge is very useful for older men, as a prevention of sexual diseases, and also as the main source of protein for active men to maintain muscle mass.

The role of protein in weight loss

When losing weight, it is important to follow a complete protein diet:

  • The digestion of protein requires more energy expenditure than the digestion of carbohydrates and fats.
  • Internal (endogenous) nutrition with protein deficiency occurs to a greater extent due to muscle tissue.

Protein for weight loss:

  • regulates blood glucose levels, protects against sudden spikes in insulin;
  • helps to gain a feeling of satiety, reduces appetite;
  • accelerates metabolism, increases metabolism;
  • supports muscle mass.

When losing weight, proteins of animal and plant origin should be consumed in approximately equal proportions; animals can even make up up to 60–70%; they are better absorbed and reduce appetite.

Meat should be of dietary grades:

  • lean beef;
  • chicken breasts;
  • rabbit meat.

If possible, the diet should be supplemented with seafood. In addition to protein, they contain vitamins, trace elements and minerals.

Seafood for weight loss:

  • squid meat;
  • shrimp and crabs;
  • tuna fillet.

Plant foods contain fiber, vitamins and promote better protein absorption.

Plant-based protein products for weight loss:

  • legumes and nuts;
  • buckwheat, oats;
  • broccoli, spinach;
  • avocado, peach;
  • dried fruits;

Low-fat lactic fermentation products will complement the protein part of the diet:

  • kefir (0–1%);
  • dry cottage cheese;
  • hard cheeses;
  • sour cream (10%).

The essence of a healthy diet is the variety and nutritional value of food. The protein intake rates in the tables are recommended. A nutritionist will help you create a more accurate list of products.

Corn

Maize is an ancient, very nutritious cereal that combines necessary and easily digestible nutritional elements: protein (5g), vitamins, amino acids, fiber, minerals (phosphorus, magnesium, manganese, calcium, zinc) and many others. Eating corn in various forms improves the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, removes waste and toxins, has choleretic and diuretic properties, improves memory, helps maintain muscle mass and performance of the body, helps strengthen the walls of blood vessels and the heart, and improves the functioning of the immune system.

Protein in dairy products.
Calorie table. Milk contains two types of valuable proteins:

  • casein (calcium caseinate);
  • albumin and globulin (whey proteins)

Casein occupies 80–87% of milk, albumin 10–12%, globulin 3–6%. It is actively used by sports nutrition manufacturers. In terms of energy value, casein is comparable to egg white. 40% of the world's population is intolerant to milk proteins and lactose (milk disaccharide) - they cause an allergic reaction in the body.

The figure depends on the region and nationality:

  • Northern Europeans 5%;
  • residents of Scandinavian countries 5–10%;
  • Eastern Slavs 16–18%;
  • African Americans 75%;
  • residents of Central Asia 80%;
  • Chinese 90%;

Dairy fermentation products - cheese, kefir, cottage cheese - are hypoallergenic to lactose. In them, milk sugar is converted into lactic acid. If you are allergic to casein, intolerance will persist; in such cases, immunologists recommend switching to soy substitutes.

History of the origin of legumes

Legumes as a plant crop have been known since ancient times. It is believed that they appeared in the Mediterranean. Peas have been known since the Stone Age, and lentils were actively used in ancient times.

In Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome, legumes were considered a sacred plant, and therefore were used in religious rites. Beans have also been found in Egyptian tombs.

This culture was used in ancient Russian cuisine. It is believed that legumes appeared in Rus' since the reign of Yaroslav the Wise.

Another legend says that Charlemagne brought them to Europe. The grains were found during archaeological excavations in the countries of the New World.

Chickpeas

Turkish peas are a plant of the legume family, also not yet very popular in Russia, they are low in calories and contain a large amount of protein (19 grams of protein per 100 grams) and fiber, as well as many vitamins that allow you to maintain a feeling of satiety for a long time and have positive effect on the gastrointestinal tract. Eating chickpeas will help cope with edema, reduce blood sugar and cholesterol levels and the risk of malignant tumors in the intestines. Vegetarians love chickpeas for their large amount of protein and use them instead of meat, making soups, porridges, and snacks from them.

Buckwheat source SIRT 1

Scientists have found that buckwheat is rich in amino acids, fiber, B vitamins and vegetable protein, namely, it contains the “longevity protein” - SIRT 1, which is involved in many intracellular processes and regulates aging mechanisms and increases stress resistance. Buckwheat porridge contains 13.25 g. protein per 100 g.

SIRT 1 (Sirtuins) is a protein synthesized by the body, an indispensable participant in metabolic processes. The amount of sirtuin can determine a person's age. Reduced sirtuin levels indicate health problems. The use of sirtuins is also widespread in the production of anti-aging cosmetics.

To start sirtuins, certain conditions are required:

  • Protein stimulants. They can be: celery, nuts, herbs, vegetable oils, green tea, turmeric, dark chocolate, some berries with dark skin;
  • Reducing sugar in the diet;
  • Moderate physical activity.

It has been established that sirtuins are produced in large quantities during times of stress, for example during a calorie-reduced diet or fasting. Guardianship is categorically against such diets and fasting. In old age, such a diet can cause irreparable harm to health!

Why is it important to eat high protein foods?

The importance of consuming protein foods is that not all amino acids are produced within the body. Some must come from food. Protein products that satisfy the body's need for all essential amino acids are called complete.

Biologists identify 10 essential amino acids:

NameFunction
valinesource of pantothenic acid, regulates nitrogen content in tissues
isoleucinestimulates physical development
leucineaffects steroid metabolism
lysineincreases the synthesis of enzymes, hormones and antibodies
methioninebreaks down fats, promotes the production of phospholipids and glucose
tyrosineaffects the synthesis of melanins, dopamine, adrenaline, thyroid hormones
threonineimproves immunity, increases collagen and elastin synthesis
tryptophanstimulates regeneration processes, production of nicotinic acid and serotonin
phenylalaninesupports thyroid function
cysteinematerial for the production of taurine and glucose, improves fat metabolism processes

Proteins in foods:

  • stimulate the functioning of the immune and endocrine systems;
  • source of synthesis of hormones and enzyme proteins;
  • maintain the correct acid-base balance;
  • remove excess fluid from the body;
  • provide the basis for the production of fibrillar proteins (collagen, keratin, elastin).

With insufficient consumption, the following are possible:

  • decreased immunity;
  • weakness, malaise;
  • decreased libido;
  • lack of muscle mass;
  • slow development of a growing organism.

High protein foods increase metabolism, reduce the level of conversion of carbohydrates into fats and reduce the physiological need for food intake.
