PAN India White Paper Urges Broader View of Protein in Plant-Based Diets
A white paper by the Physicians Association for Nutrition, India (PAN India), released during National Nutrition Week, argues that India's focus on protein quantity and 'complete vs incomplete' labels overlooks broader nutritional adequacy. It emphasizes evaluating protein intake across five levels: the protein source, food, meal, overall diet, and individual health needs. The paper advocates considering protein as part of a varied, calorie-adequate diet suited to life stage and health status rather than isolated gram counts or labels.
