Lose weight with plant proteins

Today there is a lot of talk about vegetable proteins, the flexitarian diet, the vegan diet, and how vegetable proteins can, with the right combinations, be a valid substitute for those of animal origin. But there is more : since very often the main sources of vegetable proteins also contain carbohydrates, replacing them with normal carbohydrate sources will allow us to slightly reduce their consumption, rebalancing the daily macronutrients in favor of proteins.

In fact, I remind you that the minimum protein quota is 0.8 grams per kilo of body weight and that in a low-calorie diet this quota must rise to at least one gram. Let’s now see how to lose weight with vegetable proteins.

HOW TO LOSE LOSS WITH VEGETABLE PROTEINS?
Here are the tips:
1) Replace traditional pasta with legume pasta: legume pasta is more protein than that of durum wheat, but not only. Just combine a serving of 70/80 grams with 30 grams of seitan to have a complete amino acid spectrum. Then season it with a seitan sauce, tomato sauce and vegetables or with mixed vegetables and a low-fat dairy product such as ricotta or mozzarella in the dose of maximum 50 gr. In this way you will have a single plate of about 400 calories to combine with only a fruit or a salad dressed with a teaspoon of oil.
2) Increase Your Carbo Sources With Fake Grains:instead of pasta and rice, try fake grains like quinoa and buckwheat. Like rice, they have no gluten and have a lower carbohydrate intake. Quinoa is the most protein-rich food among the false grains. It should also be paired here with seitan or tofu or with a mix of legumes throughout the day. Buckwheat is also very versatile as it has slimming properties because it activates sirtuins. I find buckwheat flour very versatile, for example I use it for this quick pan pizza.
