This , , a nation-wide protein awareness initiative is urging citizens to focus on the consumption of ' sources'.To educate citizens about foods that are deemed as 'quality protein', the initiative is introducing a special hall of fame, developed with advice from India's leading nutritionists, exhibiting all the seven quality protein sources recommended for optimal protein intake.A complete source of protein must be highly digestible and must contain all nine amino acids that the body cannot synthesize, and must be acquired from dietary means, thus making it a complete source of protein.Extending support to the cause, Inoshi Sharma, Executive Director at FSSAI, said that "Protein is an integral part of our overall well-being, and its deficiency can have a long-term impact on one's quality of life. Given that regular consumption of protein rich foods play an important role in boosting our immunity, it is also important to be well informed about quality protein sources especially plant based, a cause we have been championing at FSSAI, as part of the Eat Right Initiative". "What better time than Protein Week to educate everyone about better protein consumption," added Sharma.The '' includes a mix of protein sources from both animal and plant protein. While most animal protein foods contain all nine amino acids, since livestock animals are fed with protein rich soybean meals, plant protein sources on the other hand generally lack one or two more essential amino acids, with the exception of and quinoa - which are among the few complete sources of plant protein available.Dr Suresh Itapu, Nutraceutical Expert, Director - NutriTech India, supporter of the Right To Protein initiative said, "There are several reports indicating that Indian diets derive almost 60 per cent protein from cereals with low digestibility. However, our country is home to many sources of quality protein that are complete in nature and have high digestibility. These are both accessible and affordable. The problem is not availability, but awareness, as cited in the Protein Paradox study. Right To Protein's much needed call for attention to focus upon quality protein food consumption is a commendable move that positively contributes to the larger goal of protein sufficiency and holistic well-being."Right To Protein will also be engaging citizens through a led with the to educate citizens further about quality protein sources.
