Ways to enhance protein quality of diet

• In todays world we all are struggling to stay
  fit, healthy and beautiful. We eat sufficient
  carbs and fat in our diet but somewhere our
  protein intake is adversely hampered due to our
  bad food choices and food habits.
• Protein in our diet is responsible for our bodys
  growth, muscle building, healthy hair and skin,
  stamina, endurance etc. Proteins obtain from
  animal sources like egg, milk and flesh are of
  good quality whereas proteins obtain from plant
  sources like cereal, pulses and nuts are of
  moderate quality that means animal proteins when
  taken in diet are better utilized by our body as
  compared to plant proteins. But does this mean
  that people who are vegan, vegetarian or those
  who eat meat less frequently only have moderate
  quality protein in their diet throughout their
  life which can result into impaired growth and
  wellbeing? The answer is No.

• Protein quality of a diet can be increased to
  maximum by blending one protein to the other
  protein, this could be easily explained by an
  example of Rajma Chaawal- Rajma or kidney beans
  is a pulse having a moderate quality protein and
  rice is a cereal which also have moderate quality
  protein but when eaten together as rajma chawal
  they both complement each other and become a
  source of good quality protein.
