Quoting Michael Loo to Nancy Backus <=-
How many amino acids does a food have to contain
in order to have it count as a protein food?
Of the many amino acids needed for existence the human body can make
all but ten of them. Those ten have to be ingested. Meat, eggs and
milk contain all ten in the required ratios. Grains contain nine of
them in abundance and is low on one. Pulses contain nine of them in
abundance as well including the one grains lack but is low in
different one. Combining those two foods frequently is the easiest
way for a vegetarian to thrive without memorizing all sorts of
tables or even learning how to pronounce those ten names.
