gm, animal protein is just 0.01% better at building muscle mass than plant protein, according to a meta-analysis from 2021

for most people the source of protein doesn't matter for building and maintaining muscle mass

What plant proteins are highest density? I don’t really care about source, just find it easier to eat denser stuff to meet ideal protein intake

Beans, soy, lentils, nuts and so much more

A cup of beans less than half the protein of a chicken breast (15g vs 38g, as per google) and so requires eating more volume — which is doable but harder

If you’re not vegan or veggie for ethical or religious reasons, I’d definitely recommend you avoid this advice and stick w dairy/egg/animal protein .
