      hey Saurabh, of course a natural protien is always better, but if you do choose artificial, PLEASE do your research on the product… theres some with high levels of dangerous metals such as Arsenic and Lead just to name a few… Im not saying all of them have toxic things in them, but just be careful…

    Thanks for the great article and sample meals. I have been subscribing to mainstream bodybuilding philosophies and techniques for years, and have always been told that I need 1.5g protein per pound of body weight in order to add muscle mass. I am already 210 pounds (6 feet tall), which means I need over 300g protein per day. Will the meal plans shown here be deficient? I am very much afraid of not only not making further gains, but losing muscle as well. This is really why it’s taken me so long to consider veganism. Thank you for your time.
