On today's episode of the Real Foodology podcast, a protein inside of a legume is different from

0:05.2

a protein inside of rice or inside of chicken or beef. They have slightly different combinations

0:11.1

of these amino acid building blocks. So a complete protein is one that has all nine of the

0:17.6

essential amino acids. There's 20 amino acids that go into making up these things,

0:22.2

beans or rice or beef, et cetera. And each one has different amounts of each one. You want to find

0:27.5

protein sources that have a sufficient amount of the nine essential ones. And essential means

0:32.7

your body can't make them. If you consume a protein that gives you the nine essential amino acids, your

0:38.2

body can convert them into the other 11 to the degree that it needs them.

Hello, friends, welcome back to another episode of the Real Foodology podcast. I'm so happy

0:48.8

that you're here. I'm your host, Courtney Swan, and today's guest is a repeat guest. I decided

year. We had an amazing episode all about protein. And I wanted to bring him back on because

1:10.2

he's such a wealth of knowledge, all about protein. And a lot of my focus, as I am turning 40 in

1:16.5

September, I can't even believe that's coming out of my mouth right now, a lot of my focus

1:20.7

has really been on prioritizing protein, getting enough protein every day, and making sure

1:26.3

that I'm building more lean muscle.

1:28.2

Because as we age, it is harder to build muscle. It's harder to keep it on. And it's also absolutely

1:33.7

imperative for longevity, for lifespan. If we want to live a high quality life, I want to live

1:39.0

a very high quality life and I want to be active well into my 90s. So I am doing everything I can and trying

1:46.3

to research everything. And Angelo is a great person to come on and talk all about this. So I brought
