How do vegans get their protein if they don't eat meat?

Excellent question! They say the image of a skinny (not to mention gangly and dread-headed) hippie has typically been the poster child of veganism. After all, there’s no way we can be muscular, fit and even bulky as vegans, right? Wrong. Vegan athletes like Brendan Brazier and Jimi Sitko are changing the negative stereotypes, proving that plant-based protein can not only build strong muscles, but can keep a vegan healthy enough to run, swim, bike, dance or pump iron. Protein sources for vegans include:
- Veggies
- Hemp
- Non-dairy milk
- Quinoa
- Tofu
- Beans
- Lentils
- Sprouted grain bread
There's more vegan sources at this following site if you'd like: http://www.vrg.org/nutrition/protein.php
