The difference between Plant Protein and Animal Protein?

The protein contained in beans, wheat, rice and other vegetables is called vegetable protein. The protein contained in meat, fish and shellfish, eggs, and dairy products is called animal protein. The insects that have attracted attention recently as a sustainable food are also rich in animal protein.

Whether protein comes from animal sources or vegetable sources is not a question of good or bad, but there are differences in terms of the types and balance of essential amino acids contained in these types of protein.
Although the scientific basis has not yet been adequately established, the results of multiple cohort studies suggest that “excessive intake of total protein and animal protein may pose the risk of Type 2 diabetes and other lifestyle-related diseases, while vegetable protein showed either no correlation or a possible preventive effect.”
