Vegetarians tend to rely a lot on dairy products, wheat (gluten), and soy for protein. The disadvantages of these proteins is that many people develop Allergies to these types of proteins.

If you have or develop allergies to these proteins, it is important to vary your food sources. Instead of over-relying on wheat, use wheat alternatives such as rice, millet, quinoa. Dairy products are ideally used sparingly, as grown animals and people do not need milk. There are many types of beans besides soy; lentils and peas tend to be less allergy forming. Nuts and seeds are an excellent source of protein as well.
