Unit 5 db: animal-based and plant-based proteins

 Review the Valenti, Vandenberg, and Lehman articles in this week’s Readings and Resources and answer the following prompts:

• Compare and contrast plant-based and animal-based protein sources.  Include science references to support your descriptions. 
  • What are the similarities?
  • What are the differences?
• Describe two meals: One should include a combination of only plant-based proteins (no animal sources) and the second should include an animal-based protein.
