herbivore v carnivore?

[kath3]

I wasn't aware. I'm wondering how the specific essential amino acids (EAA's) occur as a percentage of the protein, in comparison
to the human 'recommended daily amount' (RDA). One might guess that animal protein was significantly closer than a single vegetable.

How's the taste and digestibility?

It's extremely digestible, very easy on the stomach.
The taste is very similar to rice ... slightly nutty but it must be rinsed to remove the bitter resin-like coating, which is called saponin.

Quinoa and amaranth both contain about 16 percent protein, E and B vitamins, calcium, iron and phosphorous.

I'll give your 2nd link a read through tomorrow as it's getting late here ... and thanks.
