When you eat foods with proteins, your body breaks down the proteins into amino acids, then combines those amino acids to make the proteins it needs.
Meat products tend to have more amino acids, so are naturally more beneficial to your body. Some substitutes are possible, except they do not always have the amino acids you need.
