Hey fool, each research will tell you different results.. contradics with each other.. Like a fool you favour one research for your convenience... Grow up stupid ..
I learnt from my cook she soaks soyachunks in hot water and softens them squeezes out water grinds them into paste. You can use this as base for gravies. Pro tip: When in doubt add Garlic to mask flavours. My mum uses whey from paneer to knead dough and soups like lemon coriander.

How to add proteins to veg diet Dairy products are good source of protein but check for lactose intolerance. Eggs are good source of protein. Dal's are not rich source of proteins. Dals are excellent for gut health that also has some protein. Whey protein is good source of proteins and it's safe if purchased from a trusted brand. 1. Unsweetened whey proteins 2.Tofu and Paneer 3. Nuts and seeds You can use a cloth to drain out water from curd and you'll get hung curd which has more proteins than regular dahi. Add paneer to any batter (Idly dosa) and increase it's protein content. Soya chunks are 50% protein by dry weight.
I learnt various ways to have proteins from my doctor as I was lagging behind in hitting my protein as well as water goals... one of the ways I include proteins is in buttermilk / chaas. this helps me hit both the goals, as sometimes its difficult to keep drinking plain water to hit the 1.5 - 2 ltr goals. I add unflavoured protein to my coffee, make it a shake and drink it like cold coffee or hot coffee in the morning. Adding my unflavoured protein to dalia pulao which is slightly watery also is a dish im loving these days. My two bits of being on protein rich diet journey as a vegetarian would be that at a time yor body can take only a 30 gm protein that is digestible, so say if your goal in the day is 70 grams, breaking down those scoops into various meals helps. This is trivia though, I do not have a lot of research to say if this should be followed by all. Best to check with your doctor on how to properly take proteins. What an awesome video !!

We do three things to increase protein intake daily. One is I am not vegetarian though do not consume meat regularly. We add 2 to 3 eggs per person to normal meal. We make hung curd based dips mostly with pudina and corriander. Add soya chunks liberally and for quick lunch to take to office, I soak veggies, soya chunk, tofu in curd marinate overnight and cook with rice in morning one pot.
@@tharun541 I too am doubtful if it makes difference in protein, but the denser curd is good to make dips, tastes better and the strained liquid too can be consumed as butter milk
@@AshwiniKumarS Hung curd does makes difference in quantity of protein, apart from taste. E.g. If you have a habit of eating 100gr hung curd daily, you have to hang the regular curd approx 200gr. (On assuming that the regular curd contains 50% water ) Hence more quantity of proteins in 100gr of hung curd as compared to the regular curd.
@@AshwiniKumarS Yes sure. But the question was about taste, creamy ness and thick texture and maintain the same amount of proteins per serving. Also some people have a sort of dislikes and allergic to the curd-water.
" The presence of a small vegetarian elite is still having a sizeable effect on the food habits .. " India has a lot of 'Pure Veg' restaurants because even the most hard core non vegetarians choose to be a total vegetarian on specific days of their choice for various reasons. Many devout meat eaters avoid even eggs on such days.. so in general Indian culture is designed such that it requires a "Pure Veg'" category and it's not all because of the vegetarian elite.
@@badrihema Disagree. Elitist is to bull-doze your way (just because you can) without a scientific / logical framework,. For example the D'Marts in our towns and cities do not carry any 'non-veg' food items. And this stems purely from the extreme religious / cultural bias of the owners (Damani).
You're wrong. Business works the way money flows. If people would like to buy veg items from the same place that serves meat, businesses would actually prefer that. Market is not ready for changing their buying habits@@dip-tree
India is the only place in the world where we have endless veg non-veg debates, yet the vegetarians suffer from constipation and the meat eaters have low muscle mass. Edit: People in the replies have proven my point 😂 To each, their own. But less talk and more action, people.
not really. meat eaters (who are not heavy rice eaters) are lean & healthy. vegetarian people who eat plenty of rice suffer from obesity. rice (alone) is devil
Bz in India meat is not eaten like daily lunch or dinner instead special occasion food twice or thrice a month for most people eggs are also not consumed on daily basis….occasionally high in oil omelette to change taste or egg curry.. since I started consuming these daily with 30 min home workout my muscle mass improved substantially and also loosen 15 kg of weight in last 9 months
It depends on the quantity/amount of consumption of meat per person per day. Indian non-vegetarians are very low in amount of consumption as compared to the other countries.
I’m vegan and you mostly mention dairy products for protein. Tofu is great option for vegans. Thankfully you have mentioned tofu in this video. Thank you so much. I enjoy watching you.
He mentioned plant based protein powder, tofu, tempeh, nuts and seeds. In addition you can also consider soy based milk and yogurt, edamame, seitan, nutritional yeast etc. you can also add soy bean in sambar, dal etc.

Being a lacto-vegetarian, adjusted my diet, never had any problem with meeting ny protein requirements. (Just to mention eyou do not need to have "complete protein" in one sitting. Here is my atleast proteinc onsumption in a day in any form. 3 cups of milk (750ml) (24g) 100 grams of besan/moong or any other lentils which have high protein(23-24g) 200 grams of grains (16-17g) Handful of nuts (5-6g) Salad bowl (3-5g) = overall 70grams per day. Also I didnt counted Extra lentil, paneer and dahi which i often consume not daily apparently. To increase bioavailability of plant protein i do take appropriate steps, from slow cooking to adding vitamin C. Over all i do consume 70 grams of protein daily (after substracting non utilized protein). Which equals to my 1g/bw which is more than RDA of .8g/bw. Without adding supplement yet. Also if missed some day or may be sometime wants more i do add whey protein to the stuff i make as snacks. And everything is under my calorie budget. Also im quite active physically as well. Also i do suggest watching video by Adam Rugsea about "myth" of protein combining and labeling foods as Protein or Carbs.
@@KritiBasantani don't worry. I track and stay within my calorie Limits. My BMR is 1656, I am quite active that makes my calorie around 2400-2500 per day. Here is the rough calorie estimates from the thing i mentioned. Milk (2cups) = 503 c Lentils (since besan has highest calories I calculated besan 100 gms) = 387 c Grains (I do consume quinoa oats millets along with wheat flour, but here lets take alone wheat flour 200 grms) = 682c Mixed nuts (soaked Almonds cashews, walnuts pistachios others) Handful = 298c Mixed Veg salad bowl (×2 )= 169c In total = 2039 calories. + fats(ghee on roti, oil used in dishes) along with spices = 300-340 c) = approx 2380 c Since My calorie expenditure is 2500. I complete those by adding dahi or paneer or others. If i gain a little weight due to lets say overeating occasionly I increase intensity of my workout for some days which increase my calorie expenditure upto to 3000 but maintain same diet and hence deficit of 500 calories. Also this is without any protein supplement. Maintaining such diet requires planning, though i mostly manage that, but sometimes don't, hence I take help of whey protein supplement. I do add little whey protein in my breakfast trying reducing other grains as for convenience.
@@amitgupta25121993 Larger is not always better. 70 Gms is enough for my body (1g/bw) Though I consume almost 80+. I mentioned the very base food which I don't miss most days. I didn't count snacks and other side dishes. If I want more I can take whey protein and can get as much as 150g. Though it will be more than twice the amount of my daily needs (2.1 g/bw) and high protein diet long term is not good for the body, as I don't utilize that much protein most will be undergo gluconeogenesis and eventually convert into glucose or will be stored as fat.
Well it’s not really that expensive. Sure, little expensive. But not significant. Plus, the comfort and easiness with whey protein is unmatched. Eggs as well.
Hello from San Diego! Upon researching, I found a list of vegan protein items. Please don't shoot the messenger, I'm happily sharing what I've learned. Some ingredients might be hard or expensive to find in India, while others are readily available. 1. Amaranth 1 cup=9.3 grams of protein 2. Peanuts 1 ounce=7.5 grams Protein 3. Tofu 3 ounces= 15 grams protein 4. Flaxseed 1 ounce=5 grams protein 5. Pistachios 1 ounce=6 grams protein 6. Quinoa 1 cup=8 grams protein 7. Hemp seeds 3 tbsp=10 grams protein 8. Red kidney beans/Rajma 1 cup 14 grams protein 9. Chickpeas 1 cup=15 grams protein 10. Chia seeds 1 ounce=5 grams protein 11. Pumpkin seeds 1 ounce 9 grams protein 12. Green Peas 1 cup=8 grams protein 13. Lentils 1 cup=18 grams protein 14. Nutritional Yeast 1/4 cup=8grams protein 15. Spelt(a grain) 1cup=11grams protein 16. Oats 1 cup=5 grams protein 17. Tempeh 6 slices=11 grams protein 18.Edamame(green soy beans) 1 cup=18 grams protein
yes. It is colonial mindset of Krish that he thinks it is unfortunate to have egg categorized as non-vegetarian in India. He seems to be so bumped that there is a green and red markers. As non-vegetarian, you can eat anything, So why the greet marker bothers you that is big question? Do people like me have no right to get easy access to food????
Thank you! The only problem with most of these sources is that when they are actually cooked, they absorb water and in a practical meal context, provide very little protein
*No science*। . All animal proteins have high quantity of methionine which has now been scientifically proven to cause many terminal diseases. For best sconce, read the book " How not to Age" by Michael Greger MD

Although didn’t quite agree with some things in the first part of the video, I really appreciate the practical tips to add proteins in diet, towards the later part of the video. Thankyou.
Oh wow, I never knew whey protein causes pimples. I used to take a scoop of whey after workout and had to suffer so much either pimples. Never made the connection between the two though ! I have to research this topic some more!
I love your channel.. all facts and no BS.. only concern here is I have girls aging 6 yrs and 10 yrs.. can we give them whey protein in form of batter or pea protein.. lots of fear mongering at home saying I can't give such protein to them.. might be a lame question ...
Add more yogurt, paneer, soy etc increase nuts and seeds in the diet like peanuts, pumpkin seeds, lentils etc. whey protein is a bit too much for children
Love this video Krish..amazing!! Wonderful.. thanks for the honest discussion and for the great ideas!!👍🙏. You didn’t enforce any thoughts but only stated your views and opinions based on your research and observation.. that’s the best!!really thankful…good to know. Now we know why people recommend you..😊👍👍👏best wishes!! Pls continue your service..to the society.🙏🙏👌tc
Hey krish, Please tell me if the following diet plan for an individual who weigh 78 kgs 5'8" tall and walks 8.5 kms in 85 minutes is acceptable or not. 1. Break fast : - a) Green moong and black urad soked over night (50 grams each) then boiled for 30 minutes - 25 grams of protein and 340 calories, b) almond, walnut, cashewnut, sunflower seed, and pumkin seed (each 5 grams) - 5 gram protein and 150 calories 2. Lunch : - a) Bajra roti 2 numbers (250 grams total) - 27.5 grams of protein and 913 calories b) Any green vegetable (except potato) nearly 200 grams - 150 calories(taking into account added oil). c) 200 grams of curd - 7 gram of protein and 130 calories OR 200 grams of thick dal - 10 grams of protein and 220 calories 3. Dinner : - Only 200 ml of milk - 6 gram of protein and 110 calories Total - 70.5 to 73.5 grams of protein and 1793 to 1883 calories
Ashok, I learnt a lot about food and nutrition from your videos. I replaced my carbs with protein (non veg) cooked in less oil . Easily without any physical activity , I reduced several kgs of weight ! Thanks to you
There is a simple hack , eat less roti/rice and add more Daal/ legumes ( at least 100g uncooked for adult) + 100g of nuts ( nuts and legumes also complete the amino profile) , in case of a cheaper alternatives add penuts/groundnuts(100g in a day) + small amount of seesame seeds to complete the amino profile. Calories do look a little bit high due to Fats but they can be managed with this even for 2000k cal diet ( alos this keeps you lot fuller for longer time) One of the most import point used overnight soaked or roasted nuts and seeds. So in a day meal will like this daal/ legumes( 100g uncooked ) + 50g nuts ( seeds if needed in case of penuts), same at night , if you are adding dairy like yougurt, paneer quantity of dal and nuts can be reduced. So by this one can completely eliminate roti or rice or just have a liitle bit
I have atarted replacing cashews with paneer or tofu for several masala gravy bases. I also try to bake as many millet and egg based cookies and cakes as possible, with half the amount of sugar a recipe recommends. This doesn't affect the taste much because a few spices like cardamom and cinnamon can be added to create an oral illusion of sweetness. Also replaced mayonaise with hung curd based dips and hummus. Even after all that, my family still needs to drink milk and eat eggs...
This is super useful...thank you! One question: While cooking for a household with teenagers (15-17 years), is it okay to add protein powders to our regular dishes?
Fantastic Krish. I am glad and relieved to know Soy protein is healthy. I use an unflavoured soy protein powder which more than 80% protein, and the rest pea and wheat protein. I dont want to use diary in any form - be it whey, paneer, curd and so on. This video is super useful and helpful. Wonderful ideas, easy to implement

After watching your earlier videos on protein, in last 6 months I have shifted myself from Vegetarian to Eggetarian and planning to add chicken in my plate soon. I am just 63 years young adult. I am taking milk with added whey protein every day morning and adding pea based veg protein in chapatti flour and also adding in dals and vegetable curries every day. But my wife , after watching side effects of protein intake on social medias , is little apprehensive about side effects of eating so much protein on my health although I do not take more than 60 grams of protein in a day. Interestingly I have already implemented your first 4 ideas to increase protein intake in my diet. And last but not the least, I have a copy of your Masala Lab in my Kindle library which I do keep reading. Thanks .... murli
All your videos are excellent. On another note, what about veggies that are lactose intolerant? They can't use whey, and plant protein powders carry a premium price tag
If you're lactose intolerant, doesn't mean that you're plant protein intolerant. Thus soy milk, almond milk are for the people who can't drink animal milk. But if you're intolerant to both, then it's a problem

@@konchady Yes. Years ago I was also introduced when Amway launched Nutrilite brand of protein powder. The accompanied brochure gave all this information and details what Krish is narrating in the video.
Why does govt need to do everything? if people voice it enough companies will quickly put fortified products on shelves. It's understandable to hold governments accountable when they provide support to people in poverty but let's leave this maay-baap sarkar mindset for everything and end up inviting regulations that need not be there.
Sprouts are the best source of protein. Because the carbohydrate in the grain turns into cellulose which is not digestible but the protein content is the same with the grain and even more when you sprout the grain. Through my limited knowledge so far I've come to this idea that you have to eat about 1 kg of sprouts per day .
I have been using another approach. We buy groundnuts, til, etc and get it oiled nearby in chakki. We also buy the residue (which is mostly protien). So we get two good things: 1. High quality oil. 2. Protein that we can mix in rotis in small quantity.
Underrated guy. Following him from jalsa pannunga jilpa kaatunga blog days. Man you are awesome. My mom loves your blog. she is so happy to see you in youtube! She says "no one can accurately explain the contents of a refrigerator like the way you did in your blog" So happy to see you here
I haven't watched the video and i dont know if you will bring out these points but this will be helpful for your audiences as well here. For vegans and vegetarians 1) Protein combining is a myth. Well more or less. Studies shows that at the end of the day you will have all the complete essential amino acid profile, so dont need to stress combining different plant protein in one meal. If protein sources are diverse enogh you will get complete protein at the end of the day. 2) Though disgestability of plant protein is low (even though that is based on flawed methods like DAAS, some researches are now showoing that they might have significantly underestimate the digestibality of plant based proteins) but adding onions and garlic which typical indian diet contains actually increases the digestiblity of the protein which makes it equal to animal protein. 3) Those who are lactose tolerant might need to know that its a spectrum. You might be just mildly intolerant and dairy products like curd etc are not bad for you in that case.
Just watched tiny bit of the video and i ageee about eggs. I build my physique just with typical indian north west diet but you are right about eggs. I have added them now.
We are undermuscled... My main macro is protein from fish n eggs n curd n nuts n seeds n whey..o.75g per pound. Can't build muscles...it takes humongous effort. Just maintaining it..m into calisthenics n I m 54. Flat stomach n awesome strength. Sarcopenia.....
Then why is it that doctors ask patients to become vegetarian every time their health goes for a toss? Because a plant based diet is healthier. Reasons to stay vegetarian: 1. Low quality of meat, eggs & dairy products in India 2. Abysmal treatment of animals exploited for food 3. Well planned vegetarian food is a complete diet rich in all macros
1. Not all doctors. This varies by region 2. In many cases they are specifically asking you to avoid high levels of fat which often tend to be used when cooking meat dishes. 3. There is no issue with “quality of meat” given that we cook our meat pretty well 4. Animal cruelty is purely subjective and it’s not for everyone to prioritise particularly if human health is prioritised at the bottom of the economic pyramid 5. Yes it is possible to be vegetarian and healthy - absolutely, but it does take more effort and money. And not everyone can spare that extra effort or money
@@krishashok Your answer is typical of an influencer who is not an expert in the field. As a doctor & clinical scientist I can assure you that there is more to meat & dairy consumption than just its fat or microbial content. Food quality in India is one of the lowest and cooking food doesnt undo the damage thats already done to our produce through poor agricultural & animal husbandry practices. Promoting excessive protein use through powders is dangerous! I do hope that people consult experts rather than take advice off TH-cam. I rest my case!
@@sunainayadavphd2751promoting protein powder consumption isn't dangerous as long as people eat it within their body limits i.e 0.8 grams per 1kg of body weight. Doctors all over the world recommend diets with enough protein. You can be wrong too.
We are vegetarian Lingayats and I fight with my wife and daughter almost regularly about protein defeciency in the diet of my grand children.Wife simply has no idea of protein and daughter is misled by You tubers. I pray that my daughter trusts you and goes through your video. I am concerned about the diet of my grand children,3 yr and 8 months old. *She thinks that nutrition means millets(like ragi),apples and vegetables.She imposed those unpalatable things on one year old kid and shunned all milk products to him.(His food consumption got reduced)* He refuses to eat egg and she won't give milk or Curds(reason:he may catch cold!!!!)
@@krishashok Thank you. Thankfully,daughter is married in to a non-vegitarian family and kids may learn to eat meat in due course. My point was,ppl don't understand the difference btn propaganda and real information.So much of unwanted propaganda is seen on millets,greens and "organic" that ppl start thinking that spinach is far more nutritious than two eggs.
Hi Krish, Nice video. I was in India recently and I was trying to shop for a good veg protein powder for my aging parents. I could not find a suitable product which was low in sugar, while being high in protein,. I found many of the so-called protein powders available at medical stores had more carbs than protein. The commercially available whey sources are much more expensive. Do you or any commentators have any good recommendation?
Dear Ashok, excellent video again, as usual. Thanks! I always wondered why we (could it be only me?) crave carbs, but not proteins. Does our body not sense that we didn't get enough protein?
Actually turns out we actually crave protein but a lifetime of eating carbs makes our body crave that so that it can extract the tiny bit of protein most grains have
"Soy will not make you feminine, which is not a bad idea by the way" God I wish everyone thought like that looking masculine or feminine is utter bullshit and I wish everyone understood this! Thankyou so much for creating such informative videos! God bless!
Consuming too much soy do alters your Endocrine system due to presence of phytoestrogens. For a man its a bad thing. High levels of estrogen in men affects his both Physical and mental health. Its interferes with normal physiology of a man (including mood and body compostion) God I wish people invest in holistic reading and accept our men and women differences instead of just implying stupid Political correctness. BTW I'm also a vegetarian.
LoL. It's not bullshit. Men have greater muscle mass than women naturally, even without training. Men who train will have greater muscle mass than women who train. Yes, being muscular = being masculine.
I forgot to mention in my earlier post that Dr. Sanjay Gupta, a well-known brain surgeon in the US & a CNN reporter, did a show called "The Last Alzheimer Patient," where he followed a group of elderly people who were diagnosed with Alzheimers, & who had changed their diet to being vegan. The 5 year study showed that they completely reversed any symptoms of Alzheimers. Many of them wished they had done it sooner, as some of them had lost their spouses to Alzheimers. They lost weight, their blood pressure dropped, and they felt lighter & more active. If u can locate the show, I highly recommend u see it, as science doesn't lie. Please don't shoot the messenger, I am merely sharing information that can benefit us all:-)
Hi Krish, I agree about adding protein through animal sources is best way but can you create a video to educate people who want to add protein without harming animals(diary farming, poultry) etc. I have tried Tofu, Paneer, Soya chunks but heard a lot negatives about Tofu, soya chunks from influencers.
Joining your channel after this video. Your videos are exceptional. Please upload videos on more such amazing ways to make us healthy. Thanks for sharing your immense knowledge.
Hello sir ! I have just started learning food science from your video from last week. The first vedio I saw was about Maida & then Eggs and I am totally facsinated by the way you explain every smallest point also. Vitamin D, Protein, Science of Milk ... I have loved all the information explained. Hats off to you sir for making us love Science more and stay away from myths !
Even though I’m a hardcore meat eater, here are some inventive ways to boost protein in a vegetarian diet: 1. Soybean Idli with High-Protein Sambar: Enhance your sambar by adding soy granules or tofu. These ingredients absorb flavors well, improving both taste and protein content. You can also include edamame, which has protein levels comparable to eggs, or tender peanuts for added protein. Consider reducing or eliminating potatoes and pumpkins in your sambar if desired. 2. Incorporate soy tikki or soy kebabs as side dishes with your meals. 3. If you eat roti, use soy flour to make a creative version of missi roti. 4. For pasta, semiya upma, idiyappam, or noodles, consider using soy-based or other protein-rich flours available in the market, such as black bean pasta. 5. Include snacks like protein-rich chikkis, dahi vadas made with Greek yogurt or hung curd, protein-rich cutlets, and protein-packed chaats and chillas.
I have the following concerns: 1) SOY products are generally coming from GMO factories. 2) Whey powders and plant protein powders are factory created and hance have preservatives. I was expecting more non-factory made protein sources.
Protein is overrated. You can live a long life without focusing on high protein if your diet is simple and carb-based. Our ancestors lived long on home-cooked, basic meals without much protein. The real problem is that we’ve become more sedentary over time but haven’t reduced our food intake. The key issue is portion control and overuse of sugar in any form,ghee, oil, snacks like biscuits and mixtures, packaged foods, and eating out. If you manage this and do some moderate exercise, you only really need to focus on protein if you’re aiming for a gym-toned look. A balanced diet will naturally provide enough protein to sustain life. Even if you consume a lot of protein, illness and death are inevitable, so it’s better to live simply.if you do this first it would benefit. Increasing protein is not bad but don't loose sleep over it 😂😂😂
@@fidaulfat589 1. More vegetables and fruits than grains. 2. More Millets than rice and wheat. Millets had less gluten and slightly higher protein than what we have today. During vedic times, the main grain consumed was barley. Rice and wheat were unheard of. 3. Meat. Yes, contrary to popular belief, meat was widely eaten by the common people of india. Only certain sects of practicing faiths were vegeterian. If you want to see some recipes of ancient times. There's a cookbook called 'pakadarpanam' written at the time of raja Nala.
Sir, Thanks for very informative video. Can you please recommend a good brand of whey (the unsweetened one that you kept mentioning). Also, Can I feed dishes made with mixing whey to my 5 year old child as well?
Lol no. The cheapest sources of protein are vegan, let alone vegetarian. To produce meat, you first have to feed that animal copious amounts of plant food. Your statement goes against the law of thermodynamics. Eg. Soy chunks: 51 g protein / 100 g (INR 12) You won't be able to find one meat that gives protein cheaper than that.
@@krishashokGovernments across the globe provide hefty subsidies to meat industries, ensuring these industries can feed enormous amounts of crops to animals and cover the substantial costs of vaccinations and supplements like B12 and D. When we factor in these expenses-vaccines, supplements, and the vast amount of crops needed-the true cost of producing 1kg of meat would run into thousands. It’s clear that animal consumption places a significant financial burden on a country's economy.
By reducing the consumption of animal products, we will free up more land for cultivating crops. This shift will enable us to produce affordable soya or pea protein powder on a larger scale. As this becomes the norm, prices will naturally decrease, making nutritious protein accessible even to the economically disadvantaged. Currently, a laborer earning 200-300 rupees a day cannot afford milk, eggs, or meat, which collectively cost between 700-2000 rupees per day for a family of three. This stark disparity means that quality nutrition is a luxury only the rich can enjoy, while the poor subsist mainly on wheat. The only way to ensure everyone has access to quality food is to reduce animal product consumption and focus on sustainable foods.
@krishashok you just spoke so much truth in the first 3 mins. Indians have a lot of bias against meat eaters, and problem is they dont know it. It's almost like an unconscious bias. Honestly, meat eaters in fact are biased against certain kind of meat eating as well. Like those who eat fish have bias against those who may eat chicken/pork.
Utterly stupid to consider egg as a vegetarian,btw i am non vegetarian. In my opinion whey protein mass production with the help of central and state government might help mostly vegetarian people like me to get protein efficient.
As someone who knows NRIs, they ask the restaurant or only go to vegan ones or cook at home. Also, meat industry and diary industry are contributing to 35%+ climate change problems where it requires 10 times more plant based food to feed the animal for raising it for butchering for meat consumption which leads to more animal killed during farming as farming also kills animals.
>As someone who knows NRIs, they ask the restaurant or only go to vegan ones or cook at home And, in which country (other than India of course) is this ridiculousness tolerated, pray tell.
@@alexsmart2612 Most Western countries nowadays. Including even Dubai. You just have to tell them that you are a vegan and they'll tell you honestly if their restaurant has options for you or not.
@@codedusting Outside India, "vegan" or "vegetarian" applies to the food you are eating, not the vessel it was cooked in. This untouchability mindset towards cooking utensils is a concept unique to India. Even in India many restaurants do not maintain that distinction, which is why many vegetarians insist on going only to "pure" vegetarian restaurants. Rajma does not become non-vegetarian just by being cooked in utensil that was earlier used to cook meat.
Hello, NRI here. I have many vegetarian friends and have never heard them ask anywhere if this place is strictly vegan/vegetarian. Restaurants outside of India don’t use different vessels for cooking vegetarian and no n vegetarian food. The only exception is allergies, if someone is allergic to milk, nuts, gluten etc then they can ask the restaurant to make sure their food doesn’t touch allergens, but that too restaurants can’t guarantee.
@@afreenmumtaz I know many who do. Anecdotal vs anecdotal. Maybe where they live, restaurants value their customers more. People have allergic reactions to meat as well. Imagine the same utensils and some pieces are mistakenly left there. It's going to be a disaster. So most good restaurants have some mechanism to totally clean the previous meal prep of their utensils or have separate utensils. The best ones are vegan restaurants because you know they won't be touching meat themselves.
Hello sir Thank you for your valuable time and knowledge Can you please suggest me which company of whey protein powder is really best for both man and woman??!!
Sir, what are the advantages & disadvantages of being vegan? My spouse is adapting vegan lifestyle at the age of 50. Left all dairy products, eggs, etc. Is adapting a complete vegan style is good? Is it worth to adapt or it's just a trend & will phased out after some years? Thank you 🙏🙏
As a general rule, you can be healthy or unhealthy on any diet, and that includes vegan diets as well. Since it is globally popular, vegan protein alternatives and supplements to address micronutrients that are not found in plants are widely available. All you need to be is mindful and know if you are getting everything you need.
Great video! A common confusion about the whey protein is the question about what happens to the protein content if it is heated? What temperature levels are okay? How much percentage of protein will remain after cooking the dough? Could you address these questions if possible?
Truth! Without any cultural bias. Indian vegetarian food is tasty, good looking and great for the gut. Adding protein powder is a must to make it wholesome.
One way (I do it) to make delicious paratha like flat-bread is that I take regular whole grains of various dals (including soya beans), wheat/jowar/millets, etc and dry grind them (in the quantity I just need for the meal) to a powder and use it to make my parathas. Sol I can choose the proportions that suit my mood on that day ! With your suggestion, I can add protein powder and grated tofu as well. to make it even more effective. BTW, I also add finely chopped leafy greens into the dough and the results are very very delicious.
Kudos to your channel. I have learnt a lot about the foods which we consumed daily. Very informative. Can you please make a video on the consumption of whey protein ? There are many discussions on internet but I want something genuine from the one who knows about food. Thanks
Meat is good for fertility as well. Women are career oriented and they are delaying getting married so if you want to be mother then better have protein rich diet by skipping so many restriction.
Excellent ideas of adding protein to a vegetarian dish. Prioritising Protein in every meal. Superb ideas and practical tips. Do you recommend any particular brands for protein powder, soy chunks and other protein sources for vegetarians? Thank you very much for spreading the knowledge about proteins.👏👏👏
Thank you Ashok for throwing so many ideas to increase your protein intake. I recommend people to take sattu as drink or in Roti which is a good source of protein .
Thanks for the wonderful tips! I've found that adding Whey isolate to Rotis makes them dry and hard compared to those made without the protein. Is there some way to make them softer/less brittle?

Indeed!
Please suggest which protein powder should I add in my beg diet?
@@krishashokDoes cooking affect the nutritive value of protein powder
There's even pea or pumpkin seed protein powder, some may work even better with your dishes than whey or soy!
@@krishashok would love more ideas like this on how to add protein powder. would you know which plant protein works best (rice/pea?)
How to add proteins to veg diet
Dairy products are good source of protein but check for lactose intolerance.
Eggs are good source of protein.
Dal's are not rich source of proteins.
Dals are excellent for gut health that also has some protein.
Whey protein is good source of proteins and it's safe if purchased from a trusted brand.
1. Unsweetened whey proteins
2.Tofu and Paneer
3. Nuts and seeds
You can use a cloth to drain out water from curd and you'll get hung curd which has more proteins than regular dahi.
Add paneer to any batter (Idly dosa) and increase it's protein content.
Soya chunks are 50% protein by dry weight.
Y unnecessary work, just eat curd "You can use a cloth to drain out water from curd"
Dal has 25% protein which is not bad by any means.
@55deepak555 With dal, you are adding another 75% carbohydrate to your diet..
Woman here, adding protein and micronutrients to my diet has reduced discomfort and cramps during periods. Thanks for educating people! ❤️
I learnt various ways to have proteins from my doctor as I was lagging behind in hitting my protein as well as water goals... one of the ways I include proteins is in buttermilk / chaas. this helps me hit both the goals, as sometimes its difficult to keep drinking plain water to hit the 1.5 - 2 ltr goals. I add unflavoured protein to my coffee, make it a shake and drink it like cold coffee or hot coffee in the morning. Adding my unflavoured protein to dalia pulao which is slightly watery also is a dish im loving these days. My two bits of being on protein rich diet journey as a vegetarian would be that at a time yor body can take only a 30 gm protein that is digestible, so say if your goal in the day is 70 grams, breaking down those scoops into various meals helps. This is trivia though, I do not have a lot of research to say if this should be followed by all. Best to check with your doctor on how to properly take proteins. What an awesome video !!
Thank you! Excellent ideas
Which protein powder are you taking ? Or how to decide which protein powder should I take ?

We do three things to increase protein intake daily. One is I am not vegetarian though do not consume meat regularly.
We add 2 to 3 eggs per person to normal meal. We make hung curd based dips mostly with pudina and corriander.
Add soya chunks liberally and for quick lunch to take to office, I soak veggies, soya chunk, tofu in curd marinate overnight and cook with rice in morning one pot.
What difference does it make to have curd on its own and having hung curd prepared out of the same amount of curd?
@@tharun541 I too am doubtful if it makes difference in protein, but the denser curd is good to make dips, tastes better and the strained liquid too can be consumed as butter milk
@@AshwiniKumarS
Hung curd does makes difference in quantity of protein, apart from taste.
E.g. If you have a habit of eating 100gr hung curd daily, you have to hang the regular curd approx 200gr.
(On assuming that the regular curd contains 50% water )
Hence more quantity of proteins in 100gr of hung curd as compared to the regular curd.
@@SATYAPRAKASH-rm5jt ratio improves but if a person can eat 100gm hung curd, it's easier to dring 200gm diluted curd
@@AshwiniKumarS
Yes sure.
But the question was about taste, creamy ness and thick texture and maintain the same amount of proteins per serving. Also some people have a sort of dislikes and allergic to the curd-water.
" The presence of a small vegetarian elite is still having a sizeable effect on the food habits .. " India has a lot of 'Pure Veg' restaurants because even the most hard core non vegetarians choose to be a total vegetarian on specific days of their choice for various reasons. Many devout meat eaters avoid even eggs on such days.. so in general Indian culture is designed such that it requires a "Pure Veg'" category and it's not all because of the vegetarian elite.
Exactly!!!
It is fashionable to come from a vegetarian background and call your own practices wrong. That - is ‘elitist’
@@badrihema Disagree. Elitist is to bull-doze your way (just because you can) without a scientific / logical framework,. For example the D'Marts in our towns and cities do not carry any 'non-veg' food items. And this stems purely from the extreme religious / cultural bias of the owners (Damani).
You're wrong. Business works the way money flows. If people would like to buy veg items from the same place that serves meat, businesses would actually prefer that. Market is not ready for changing their buying habits@@dip-tree
@@srikarraoayilneni7074 Don't be arrogant, I know the Damanis. What I said is correct.
India is the only place in the world where we have endless veg non-veg debates, yet the vegetarians suffer from constipation and the meat eaters have low muscle mass.
Edit: People in the replies have proven my point 😂 To each, their own. But less talk and more action, people.
Nope look at the meat eaters they are pretty high in muscle mass compared to other vegetarians. Brahmins in my state have man boobs.
@@fzz6716untouchables all over India choke inside sewers
not really. meat eaters (who are not heavy rice eaters) are lean & healthy. vegetarian people who eat plenty of rice suffer from obesity. rice (alone) is devil
Bz in India meat is not eaten like daily lunch or dinner instead special occasion food twice or thrice a month for most people eggs are also not consumed on daily basis….occasionally high in oil omelette to change taste or egg curry.. since I started consuming these daily with 30 min home workout my muscle mass improved substantially and also loosen 15 kg of weight in last 9 months
It depends on the quantity/amount of consumption of meat per person per day.
Indian non-vegetarians are very low in amount of consumption as compared to the other countries.
I’m vegan and you mostly mention dairy products for protein. Tofu is great option for vegans. Thankfully you have mentioned tofu in this video. Thank you so much. I enjoy watching you.
I also mentioned plant based protein powders
Tofu is actually excellent. Though it is not as tasty as paneer, it has half the calories and about the same amount of protein and cheaper too.
He mentioned plant based protein powder, tofu, tempeh, nuts and seeds. In addition you can also consider soy based milk and yogurt, edamame, seitan, nutritional yeast etc. you can also add soy bean in sambar, dal etc.

This wave of self-proclaimed TH-cam gurus is a real issue in India. Everyone’s a “gyani baba” with a camera 🎥 these days!
Being a lacto-vegetarian, adjusted my diet, never had any problem with meeting ny protein requirements. (Just to mention eyou do not need to have "complete protein" in one sitting.
Here is my atleast proteinc onsumption in a day in any form.
3 cups of milk (750ml) (24g)
100 grams of besan/moong or any other lentils which have high protein(23-24g)
200 grams of grains (16-17g)
Handful of nuts (5-6g)
Salad bowl (3-5g)
= overall 70grams per day.
Also I didnt counted Extra lentil, paneer and dahi which i often consume not daily apparently.
To increase bioavailability of plant protein i do take appropriate steps, from slow cooking to adding vitamin C.
Over all i do consume 70 grams of protein daily (after substracting non utilized protein). Which equals to my 1g/bw which is more than RDA of .8g/bw. Without adding supplement yet.
Also if missed some day or may be sometime wants more i do add whey protein to the stuff i make as snacks.
And everything is under my calorie budget. Also im quite active physically as well.
Also i do suggest watching video by Adam Rugsea about "myth" of protein combining and labeling foods as Protein or Carbs.
Curious about the number of calories the above mentioned 'diet in a day' has?
@@KritiBasantani don't worry. I track and stay within my calorie Limits. My BMR is 1656, I am quite active that makes my calorie around 2400-2500 per day. Here is the rough calorie estimates from the thing i mentioned.
Milk (2cups) = 503 c
Lentils (since besan has highest calories I calculated besan 100 gms) = 387 c
Grains (I do consume quinoa oats millets along with wheat flour, but here lets take alone wheat flour 200 grms) = 682c
Mixed nuts (soaked Almonds cashews, walnuts pistachios others) Handful = 298c
Mixed Veg salad bowl (×2 )= 169c
In total = 2039 calories.
+ fats(ghee on roti, oil used in dishes) along with spices = 300-340 c)
= approx 2380 c
Since My calorie expenditure is 2500. I complete those by adding dahi or paneer or others.
If i gain a little weight due to lets say overeating occasionly I increase intensity of my workout for some days which increase my calorie expenditure upto to 3000 but maintain same diet and hence deficit of 500 calories. Also this is without any protein supplement. Maintaining such diet requires planning, though i mostly manage that, but sometimes don't, hence I take help of whey protein supplement. I do add little whey protein in my breakfast trying reducing other grains as for convenience.
Which brand of whey do you use?
70 gm is meh, i consume 150 gm easily on a omnivore diet.
@@amitgupta25121993 Larger is not always better. 70 Gms is enough for my body (1g/bw) Though I consume almost 80+. I mentioned the very base food which I don't miss most days. I didn't count snacks and other side dishes. If I want more I can take whey protein and can get as much as 150g. Though it will be more than twice the amount of my daily needs (2.1 g/bw) and high protein diet long term is not good for the body, as I don't utilize that much protein most will be undergo gluconeogenesis and eventually convert into glucose or will be stored as fat.
Or if you are a non veg and add protein with low cost
Add eggs to most dishes. Ez
Hehe
Well it’s not really that expensive. Sure, little expensive. But not significant. Plus, the comfort and easiness with whey protein is unmatched. Eggs as well.
Egg whites 🤌🏻 @@supreetsahu1964
Yes!
Hello from San Diego! Upon researching, I found a list of vegan protein items. Please don't shoot the messenger, I'm happily sharing what I've learned. Some ingredients might be hard or expensive to find in India, while others are readily available.
1. Amaranth 1 cup=9.3 grams of protein
2. Peanuts 1 ounce=7.5 grams Protein
3. Tofu 3 ounces= 15 grams protein
4. Flaxseed 1 ounce=5 grams protein
5. Pistachios 1 ounce=6 grams protein
6. Quinoa 1 cup=8 grams protein
7. Hemp seeds 3 tbsp=10 grams protein
8. Red kidney beans/Rajma 1 cup 14 grams protein
9. Chickpeas 1 cup=15 grams protein
10. Chia seeds 1 ounce=5 grams protein
11. Pumpkin seeds 1 ounce 9 grams protein
12. Green Peas 1 cup=8 grams protein
13. Lentils 1 cup=18 grams protein
14. Nutritional Yeast 1/4 cup=8grams protein
15. Spelt(a grain) 1cup=11grams protein
16. Oats 1 cup=5 grams protein
17. Tempeh 6 slices=11 grams protein
18.Edamame(green soy beans) 1 cup=18 grams protein
yes. It is colonial mindset of Krish that he thinks it is unfortunate to have egg categorized as non-vegetarian in India. He seems to be so bumped that there is a green and red markers. As non-vegetarian, you can eat anything, So why the greet marker bothers you that is big question? Do people like me have no right to get easy access to food????
Thank you! The only problem with most of these sources is that when they are actually cooked, they absorb water and in a practical meal context, provide very little protein

Hey krish,
Please tell me if the following diet plan for an individual who weigh 78 kgs 5'8" tall and walks 8.5 kms in 85 minutes is acceptable or not.
1. Break fast : -
a) Green moong and black urad soked over night (50 grams each) then boiled for 30 minutes - 25 grams of protein and 340 calories,
b) almond, walnut, cashewnut, sunflower seed, and pumkin seed (each 5 grams) - 5 gram protein and 150 calories
2. Lunch : -
a) Bajra roti 2 numbers (250 grams total) - 27.5 grams of protein and 913 calories
b) Any green vegetable (except potato) nearly 200 grams - 150 calories(taking into account added oil).
c) 200 grams of curd - 7 gram of protein and 130 calories OR 200 grams of thick dal - 10 grams of protein and 220 calories
3. Dinner : -
Only 200 ml of milk - 6 gram of protein and 110 calories
Total - 70.5 to 73.5 grams of protein and 1793 to 1883 calories

Hi, would be a great help if you could give some tips here. Like you, I am trying to 'replace carb with proteins (non veg--chicken and eggs)'. Thanks.
You are going downhill
@@rajkumarntpc bakshi sab bole, ntpc ke stalwards.....
Congratulations
There is a simple hack , eat less roti/rice and add more Daal/ legumes ( at least 100g uncooked for adult) + 100g of nuts ( nuts and legumes also complete the amino profile) , in case of a cheaper alternatives add penuts/groundnuts(100g in a day) + small amount of seesame seeds to complete the amino profile. Calories do look a little bit high due to Fats but they can be managed with this even for 2000k cal diet ( alos this keeps you lot fuller for longer time)
One of the most import point used overnight soaked or roasted nuts and seeds.
So in a day meal will like this daal/ legumes( 100g uncooked ) + 50g nuts ( seeds if needed in case of penuts), same at night , if you are adding dairy like yougurt, paneer quantity of dal and nuts can be reduced. So by this one can completely eliminate roti or rice or just have a liitle bit
I have atarted replacing cashews with paneer or tofu for several masala gravy bases.
I also try to bake as many millet and egg based cookies and cakes as possible, with half the amount of sugar a recipe recommends. This doesn't affect the taste much because a few spices like cardamom and cinnamon can be added to create an oral illusion of sweetness.
Also replaced mayonaise with hung curd based dips and hummus.
Even after all that, my family still needs to drink milk and eat eggs...
This is super useful...thank you! One question: While cooking for a household with teenagers (15-17 years), is it okay to add protein powders to our regular dishes?
A question best asked to a doctor.
It should be fine, it's just protein! Just make sure they drink enough water too since high protein diets increase water consumption
Fantastic Krish. I am glad and relieved to know Soy protein is healthy. I use an unflavoured soy protein powder which more than 80% protein, and the rest pea and wheat protein. I dont want to use diary in any form - be it whey, paneer, curd and so on. This video is super useful and helpful. Wonderful ideas, easy to implement

On another note, what about veggies that are lactose intolerant? They can't use whey, and plant protein powders carry a premium price tag
If you're lactose intolerant, doesn't mean that you're plant protein intolerant. Thus soy milk, almond milk are for the people who can't drink animal milk. But if you're intolerant to both, then it's a problem

Hey, can you influence the government to fortify wheat flour and rice with protein?
Great.
It will be very good initiative.
it will be more costly is guess
Why does govt need to do everything? if people voice it enough companies will quickly put fortified products on shelves. It's understandable to hold governments accountable when they provide support to people in poverty but let's leave this maay-baap sarkar mindset for everything and end up inviting regulations that need not be there.
Sprouts are the best source of protein. Because the carbohydrate in the grain turns into cellulose which is not digestible but the protein content is the same with the grain and even more when you sprout the grain. Through my limited knowledge so far I've come to this idea that you have to eat about 1 kg of sprouts per day .
Very good video to start purattasi month !

I have been using another approach. We buy groundnuts, til, etc and get it oiled nearby in chakki. We also buy the residue (which is mostly protien). So we get two good things:
1. High quality oil.
2. Protein that we can mix in rotis in small quantity.
That residue is still fair bit of carbs.

1) Protein combining is a myth. Well more or less. Studies shows that at the end of the day you will have all the complete essential amino acid profile, so dont need to stress combining different plant protein in one meal. If protein sources are diverse enogh you will get complete protein at the end of the day.
2) Though disgestability of plant protein is low (even though that is based on flawed methods like DAAS, some researches are now showoing that they might have significantly underestimate the digestibality of plant based proteins) but adding onions and garlic which typical indian diet contains actually increases the digestiblity of the protein which makes it equal to animal protein.
3) Those who are lactose tolerant might need to know that its a spectrum. You might be just mildly intolerant and dairy products like curd etc are not bad for you in that case.
Just watched tiny bit of the video and i ageee about eggs.
I build my physique just with typical indian north west diet but you are right about eggs.
I have added them now.
Thankyou for sharing this!

Remarkably informative and helpful. Subscribed. 💯
Then why is it that doctors ask patients to become vegetarian every time their health goes for a toss? Because a plant based diet is healthier. Reasons to stay vegetarian:
1. Low quality of meat, eggs & dairy products in India
2. Abysmal treatment of animals exploited for food
3. Well planned vegetarian food is a complete diet rich in all macros
Total myths again!
1. Not all doctors. This varies by region
2. In many cases they are specifically asking you to avoid high levels of fat which often tend to be used when cooking meat dishes.
3. There is no issue with “quality of meat” given that we cook our meat pretty well
4. Animal cruelty is purely subjective and it’s not for everyone to prioritise particularly if human health is prioritised at the bottom of the economic pyramid
5. Yes it is possible to be vegetarian and healthy - absolutely, but it does take more effort and money. And not everyone can spare that extra effort or money
@@krishashok Your answer is typical of an influencer who is not an expert in the field. As a doctor & clinical scientist I can assure you that there is more to meat & dairy consumption than just its fat or microbial content. Food quality in India is one of the lowest and cooking food doesnt undo the damage thats already done to our produce through poor agricultural & animal husbandry practices. Promoting excessive protein use through powders is dangerous! I do hope that people consult experts rather than take advice off TH-cam. I rest my case!
Well my Doctor asked me to Increase Organ meats.
@@sunainayadavphd2751promoting protein powder consumption isn't dangerous as long as people eat it within their body limits i.e 0.8 grams per 1kg of body weight. Doctors all over the world recommend diets with enough protein. You can be wrong too.
Kindly suggest good brands for unflavoured protein powders
We are vegetarian Lingayats and I fight with my wife and daughter almost regularly about protein defeciency in the diet of my grand children.Wife simply has no idea of protein and daughter is misled by You tubers.
I pray that my daughter trusts you and goes through your video.
I am concerned about the diet of my grand children,3 yr and 8 months old.
*She thinks that nutrition means millets(like ragi),apples and vegetables.She imposed those unpalatable things on one year old kid and shunned all milk products to him.(His food consumption got reduced)* He refuses to eat egg and she won't give milk or Curds(reason:he may catch cold!!!!)
Very unfortunate. Hopefully the kids learn to eat other kinds of food from their peer group
@@krishashok Thank you.
Thankfully,daughter is married in to a non-vegitarian family and kids may learn to eat meat in due course.
My point was,ppl don't understand the difference btn propaganda and real information.So much of unwanted propaganda is seen on millets,greens and "organic" that ppl start thinking that spinach is far more nutritious than two eggs.
Not giving milk products to children is very cruel indeed
Jains have survived and are healthy without milk products @@parthkhanolkar7916
Hi Krish, Nice video. I was in India recently and I was trying to shop for a good veg protein powder for my aging parents. I could not find a suitable product which was low in sugar, while being high in protein,. I found many of the so-called protein powders available at medical stores had more carbs than protein. The commercially available whey sources are much more expensive. Do you or any commentators have any good recommendation?
Dear Ashok, excellent video again, as usual. Thanks!
I always wondered why we (could it be only me?) crave carbs, but not proteins. Does our body not sense that we didn't get enough protein?
Actually turns out we actually crave protein but a lifetime of eating carbs makes our body crave that so that it can extract the tiny bit of protein most grains have
"Soy will not make you feminine, which is not a bad idea by the way"
God I wish everyone thought like that looking masculine or feminine is utter bullshit and I wish everyone understood this!
Thankyou so much for creating such informative videos!
God bless!
Consuming too much soy do alters your Endocrine system due to presence of phytoestrogens. For a man its a bad thing. High levels of estrogen in men affects his both Physical and mental health. Its interferes with normal physiology of a man (including mood and body compostion)
God I wish people invest in holistic reading and accept our men and women differences instead of just implying stupid Political correctness.
BTW I'm also a vegetarian.
LoL. It's not bullshit. Men have greater muscle mass than women naturally, even without training. Men who train will have greater muscle mass than women who train. Yes, being muscular = being masculine.
Bro see woman on steroids they look like men
Please suggest reliable source of protein powder brands.
I forgot to mention in my earlier post that Dr. Sanjay Gupta, a well-known brain surgeon in the US & a CNN reporter, did a show called "The Last Alzheimer Patient," where he followed a group of elderly people who were diagnosed with Alzheimers, & who had changed their diet to being vegan. The 5 year study showed that they completely reversed any symptoms of Alzheimers. Many of them wished they had done it sooner, as some of them had lost their spouses to Alzheimers. They lost weight, their blood pressure dropped, and they felt lighter & more active. If u can locate the show, I highly recommend u see it, as science doesn't lie. Please don't shoot the messenger, I am merely sharing information that can benefit us all:-)
Hi Krish, I agree about adding protein through animal sources is best way but can you create a video to educate people who want to add protein without harming animals(diary farming, poultry) etc. I have tried Tofu, Paneer, Soya chunks but heard a lot negatives about Tofu, soya chunks from influencers.
Joining your channel after this video. Your videos are exceptional.
Please upload videos on more such amazing ways to make us healthy.
Thanks for sharing your immense knowledge.
Thank you!
I'm finding such innovative ways to increase protein content of my whole family ❤
Thanks Krish .. I am a pure vegetarian… thank you for making this video
What does 'pure' vegetarian mean?
@@ksabhinav she doesn’t have any impurities that is like pure gold
@@ksabhinav pls don’t be offended. By pure, they mean No eggs also.
Pure vegetarian means no eggs and meat
@@poojamitra3990eggs are veg tho
Wow.. Brilliant ideas..I will surely try these & see what works for my fam..
Perfect!
Best ways to add protein to vegetarian diet:
1. Add 120gm chicken breast
2. Add 4 whole eggs
Haha fair enough
Hello sir ! I have just started learning food science from your video from last week. The first vedio I saw was about Maida & then Eggs and I am totally facsinated by the way you explain every smallest point also. Vitamin D, Protein, Science of Milk ... I have loved all the information explained. Hats off to you sir for making us love Science more and stay away from myths !
Even though I’m a hardcore meat eater, here are some inventive ways to boost protein in a vegetarian diet:
1. Soybean Idli with High-Protein Sambar:
Enhance your sambar by adding soy granules or tofu. These ingredients absorb flavors well, improving both taste and protein content. You can also include edamame, which has protein levels comparable to eggs, or tender peanuts for added protein. Consider reducing or eliminating potatoes and pumpkins in your sambar if desired.
2. Incorporate soy tikki or soy kebabs as side dishes with your meals.
3. If you eat roti, use soy flour to make a creative version of missi roti.
4. For pasta, semiya upma, idiyappam, or noodles, consider using soy-based or other protein-rich flours available in the market, such as black bean pasta.
5. Include snacks like protein-rich chikkis, dahi vadas made with Greek yogurt or hung curd, protein-rich cutlets, and protein-packed chaats and chillas.
Excellent ideas
@@krishashok Approved ❤. 😮
Do you slaughter your meat
@@bhisham2687 no my butcher does!
@@bestever1505 next time slaughter your meat yourself and it will be more tastier
I have the following concerns:
1) SOY products are generally coming from GMO factories.
2) Whey powders and plant protein powders are factory created and hance have preservatives.
I was expecting more non-factory made protein sources.
Protein is overrated. You can live a long life without focusing on high protein if your diet is simple and carb-based. Our ancestors lived long on home-cooked, basic meals without much protein. The real problem is that we’ve become more sedentary over time but haven’t reduced our food intake. The key issue is portion control and overuse of sugar in any form,ghee, oil, snacks like biscuits and mixtures, packaged foods, and eating out. If you manage this and do some moderate exercise, you only really need to focus on protein if you’re aiming for a gym-toned look. A balanced diet will naturally provide enough protein to sustain life. Even if you consume a lot of protein, illness and death are inevitable, so it’s better to live simply.if you do this first it would benefit. Increasing protein is not bad but don't loose sleep over it 😂😂😂
I've a question for you.
Are you stupid?
Our ancestors actually had more protein than we have now
@@parthkhanolkar7916 really ? What they consumed
@@fidaulfat589 1. More vegetables and fruits than grains.
2. More Millets than rice and wheat. Millets had less gluten and slightly higher protein than what we have today. During vedic times, the main grain consumed was barley. Rice and wheat were unheard of.
3. Meat. Yes, contrary to popular belief, meat was widely eaten by the common people of india. Only certain sects of practicing faiths were vegeterian.
If you want to see some recipes of ancient times. There's a cookbook called 'pakadarpanam' written at the time of raja Nala.
@@parthkhanolkar7916😂😂 no they didnt
Sir, Thanks for very informative video. Can you please recommend a good brand of whey (the unsweetened one that you kept mentioning). Also, Can I feed dishes made with mixing whey to my 5 year old child as well?
Well, getting protein from vegetarian sources is more expensive
Yep it is
Lol no. The cheapest sources of protein are vegan, let alone vegetarian. To produce meat, you first have to feed that animal copious amounts of plant food. Your statement goes against the law of thermodynamics.
Eg. Soy chunks: 51 g protein / 100 g (INR 12)
You won't be able to find one meat that gives protein cheaper than that.
@@krishashokGovernments across the globe provide hefty subsidies to meat industries, ensuring these industries can feed enormous amounts of crops to animals and cover the substantial costs of vaccinations and supplements like B12 and D. When we factor in these expenses-vaccines, supplements, and the vast amount of crops needed-the true cost of producing 1kg of meat would run into thousands. It’s clear that animal consumption places a significant financial burden on a country's economy.
By reducing the consumption of animal products, we will free up more land for cultivating crops. This shift will enable us to produce affordable soya or pea protein powder on a larger scale. As this becomes the norm, prices will naturally decrease, making nutritious protein accessible even to the economically disadvantaged. Currently, a laborer earning 200-300 rupees a day cannot afford milk, eggs, or meat, which collectively cost between 700-2000 rupees per day for a family of three. This stark disparity means that quality nutrition is a luxury only the rich can enjoy, while the poor subsist mainly on wheat. The only way to ensure everyone has access to quality food is to reduce animal product consumption and focus on sustainable foods.
@krishashok you just spoke so much truth in the first 3 mins. Indians have a lot of bias against meat eaters, and problem is they dont know it. It's almost like an unconscious bias. Honestly, meat eaters in fact are biased against certain kind of meat eating as well. Like those who eat fish have bias against those who may eat chicken/pork.
Indeed
Utterly stupid to consider egg as a vegetarian,btw i am non vegetarian.
In my opinion whey protein mass production with the help of central and state government might help mostly vegetarian people like me to get protein efficient.
Maybe a confusion with eggplant 🍆
Why is a cow's mammary gland secretion vegetarian but a chicken's period non-vegetarian?
Nice! Informative. Heard that heating protein supplements will reduce the absorption rate. Is that true?
Yes
As someone who knows NRIs, they ask the restaurant or only go to vegan ones or cook at home. Also, meat industry and diary industry are contributing to 35%+ climate change problems where it requires 10 times more plant based food to feed the animal for raising it for butchering for meat consumption which leads to more animal killed during farming as farming also kills animals.
>As someone who knows NRIs, they ask the restaurant or only go to vegan ones or cook at home
And, in which country (other than India of course) is this ridiculousness tolerated, pray tell.
@@alexsmart2612 Most Western countries nowadays. Including even Dubai. You just have to tell them that you are a vegan and they'll tell you honestly if their restaurant has options for you or not.
@@codedusting Outside India, "vegan" or "vegetarian" applies to the food you are eating, not the vessel it was cooked in. This untouchability mindset towards cooking utensils is a concept unique to India. Even in India many restaurants do not maintain that distinction, which is why many vegetarians insist on going only to "pure" vegetarian restaurants.
Rajma does not become non-vegetarian just by being cooked in utensil that was earlier used to cook meat.
Hello, NRI here. I have many vegetarian friends and have never heard them ask anywhere if this place is strictly vegan/vegetarian. Restaurants outside of India don’t use different vessels for cooking vegetarian and no n vegetarian food. The only exception is allergies, if someone is allergic to milk, nuts, gluten etc then they can ask the restaurant to make sure their food doesn’t touch allergens, but that too restaurants can’t guarantee.
@@afreenmumtaz I know many who do. Anecdotal vs anecdotal. Maybe where they live, restaurants value their customers more. People have allergic reactions to meat as well. Imagine the same utensils and some pieces are mistakenly left there. It's going to be a disaster. So most good restaurants have some mechanism to totally clean the previous meal prep of their utensils or have separate utensils. The best ones are vegan restaurants because you know they won't be touching meat themselves.
Hello sir
Thank you for your valuable time and knowledge
Can you please suggest me which company of whey protein powder is really best for both man and woman??!!
Sir, what are the advantages & disadvantages of being vegan? My spouse is adapting vegan lifestyle at the age of 50.
Left all dairy products, eggs, etc. Is adapting a complete vegan style is good? Is it worth to adapt or it's just a trend & will phased out after some years?
Thank you 🙏🙏
As a general rule, you can be healthy or unhealthy on any diet, and that includes vegan diets as well. Since it is globally popular, vegan protein alternatives and supplements to address micronutrients that are not found in plants are widely available. All you need to be is mindful and know if you are getting everything you need.
@@krishashok yes. Thank you Sir.
Great video!
A common confusion about the whey protein is the question about what happens to the protein content if it is heated? What temperature levels are okay? How much percentage of protein will remain after cooking the dough?
Could you address these questions if possible?
I feel the better choice is to add it to your cooked dals or curd rather than cook whey protein.
Just subscribed! Thank you for your honest and accurate views/info
Truth! Without any cultural bias. Indian vegetarian food is tasty, good looking and great for the gut. Adding protein powder is a must to make it wholesome.
So is Indian, especially south indian meat-based food, tasty
Mushrooms and Quinoa have all 9 amino acids and most vegans in USA use it daily in their meals. Thank you, very informative program.
One way (I do it) to make delicious paratha like flat-bread is that I take regular whole grains of various dals (including soya beans), wheat/jowar/millets, etc and dry grind them (in the quantity I just need for the meal) to a powder and use it to make my parathas. Sol I can choose the proportions that suit my mood on that day ! With your suggestion, I can add protein powder and grated tofu as well. to make it even more effective. BTW, I also add finely chopped leafy greens into the dough and the results are very very delicious.
Wonderful ideas. Could you recommend any reliable brands for protein powder in India? Thanks!
Thank you 😊 will try this .. I really like protein powder with chia pudding .. this has helped me cut out desserts 😊
Lovely
Thanks for the enlightenment!!! We are keep following same habits from our parents and they did the same without asking any questions?
Kudos to your channel. I have learnt a lot about the foods which we consumed daily. Very informative. Can you please make a video on the consumption of whey protein ? There are many discussions on internet but I want something genuine from the one who knows about food.
Thanks
Great video, your best! Boss, can you tell which whey you take? Or please recommend an unsweetened one🎉 Many thanks 😊
I think this video will be a huge gamechanger for me😅
Hey Krish ! Great job again! All your recommendations are good, can you suggest a whey protein which is not super expensive and trusted,
Enjoy your deep analysis about food, is it safe to eat protein for dinner?
Yes!!
Sincere thanks for bursting myths regarding protein powders and sharing ways to include protein in regular diet.
What is your opinion on plant based protein supplements?
They are fine!
excellent video, thanks for your work. ❤
Thank you
Meat is good for fertility as well.
Women are career oriented and they are delaying getting married so if you want to be mother then better have protein rich diet by skipping so many restriction.
Excellent ideas of adding protein to a vegetarian dish. Prioritising Protein in every meal. Superb ideas and practical tips. Do you recommend any particular brands for protein powder, soy chunks and other protein sources for vegetarians? Thank you very much for spreading the knowledge about proteins.👏👏👏
Thanks for wonderful suggestions to increase protein.
Welcome
Thank you Ashok for throwing so many ideas to increase your protein intake. I recommend people to take sattu as drink or in Roti which is a good source of protein .
Hello! I add paneer or tofu puree to any vegetable curry or dal gravy. It adds a nice texture to the gravy 🤤
Works!
Thanks for the wonderful tips! I've found that adding Whey isolate to Rotis makes them dry and hard compared to those made without the protein. Is there some way to make them softer/less brittle?
You can add soft tofu while making chapathi dough.
Thanks for this video... There are not many trustworthy videos on this topic.
Is soy chunk safe?
Have come across lots of negative reviews/news.
Very informative video ,as always 👏👏
Loved your tips to increase consumption of proteins in diet
So glad!
Hey Krish, can we give this whey protien dosas and other food to kids
