an easier way to get protein in?
This may be a nuts question, but where else can I bring these questions to besides here, or okay My Dr. but its Sunday night. Some woman I ran into today insists that I need to take Blue Green Algae because it has so much protein in it. Does anyone know anything about that? I'm not a big meat eater but I'm wondering if this is a hoax. Does anyone on here take or have taken this stuff? Is it a viable form of protein for us? Just wonderin...... Thanks!
There are many blue green algae types and I don't know if the nutritional value is equal on all of them or not. Some, not sure if all, may have protein but from what I have read it is no higher than what you would get with meats plus it seems to be about 3x as expensive per gram as meats and other proteins.
I wish I could offer some good studies, and there may be some but I haven't run across them. I'd do a search for more info before taking it. I'd also wonder if it is a complete enough protein to have the nutrients we need in order to absorb it.
