Diets high in red meat (especially processed) is associated with higher risk of heart disease. 250 ml milk: 8 gm, egg: 7 gm, 85 gm of meat: over 20 gm incomplete proteins (legumes) Contain some b vitamins, iron, zinc, calcium (but less available in the body. These sources tend to be high in fiber, unsaturated fats and phytochemicals. Diets high in legumes and seeds are associated with lower risk of heart disease.
