PAN India Report Urges Holistic Approach to Protein in Diets Over Gram Counting
A recent white paper by the Physicians Association for Nutrition in India (PAN India) emphasizes that protein intake should be assessed within the context of overall dietary patterns rather than by counting grams or focusing on individual foods. It highlights that most plant foods contain essential amino acids and that protein adequacy depends on factors including the food source, meal composition, and individual health needs. The paper warns against relying on processed 'high-protein' products, which may be unhealthy despite their protein content, and stresses the importance of balanced diets for vulnerable groups.
