Whey:
Whey protein is the ultimate designer food. Whey protein has been proven to be the best known. It has one purpose -- to make you reach your goal of a firm, toned, sexy body!
Sales of protein foods containing whey protein have been increasing worldwide over the past decade to the point where there has been a shortage of this type of protein as the manufacturers are attempting to meet the high consumer demand.
In addition to amazing fitness properties, protein foods containing whey protein also have some very potent immunological benefits as well as other healthy effects such as an anti-cancer functional food.
Soy:
Protein foods containing soy are very popular and deserve their own much more in depth discussion. Soy protein is not a preferred choice for "body sculpting", but it is crucial for good health. That's why you'll find information separately about this protein in a separate section of this site.
Egg:
As far as eggs go, they're a great protein source and are fairly inexpensive. The only problem is that you have to eat a lot of them to get your full amount of protein.
Most people get sick of them first. But, you can add them in to almost any meal to increase the amount of protein you're eating. Just make sure you also eat some other source of high quality protein. 2 or 3 eggs will not do it.
Meat:
Meats like chicken, tuna, and lean cuts of beef provide a slower release of amino acids, thereby increasing muscle growth to a good degree. Plus, in most cases, they're pretty cheap as well. Meats are also very good for you hahahahhah!
Properly timed and taken in sufficient amounts, foods high in protein will help you see a marked improvement in your both your health & fitness endeavors.
Unfortunately, protein foods have been pushed to the side and replaced by highly processed, refined foods, primarily starchy carbohydrates causing a lot of health problems in society.

What is protein and why do we need it?
