Short conversational clip from a YouTube video (by Robert Whitfield MD) where an unidentified speaker raises the challenge of vegan/vegetarian patients not getting enough protein for recovery. Dr. Whitfield responds that they use vegan amino acids and prefer pea protein as the protein source in his practice.
I think for us, our biggest challenge, not patient population here in L. A is I have a lot of, like, vegan vegetarian patients who just don't get enough protein. And so I can't imagine that must be a challenge for you just in terms of recovery. You need protein.
For us, the way we've tried to navigate that is the amino acids are vegan, basically, and the, the protein source that we prefer to use is, in my line is based on pea protein. So I've tried to. And for everybody listening, I, you know, I, I do this just like Dutch.
