    "Complete" proteins

    How much of your protein intake should be from complete proteins? Is the science in on our required amount of essential BCAA's(mg)?

    Furthermore, are the essential BCAA's important PW?

    The simple answer IMO is 'as much as possible'.

    That said, you should still count your incomplete proteins towards your daily total. Essentially your body will 'pool' these sources until they can be matched with the missing aminos, thereby creating a complete and usable protein.

    So is there any % I should shoot for as far as complete protein/total protein ratio? Or just "as much as possible"?

    unless you are a vegetarian or a vegan (or have very uncommon eating habits or diet) I wouldnt give this any thought.
