From Rip Esselstyn, a former world-class professional tri-athlete, firefighter, and the son, grandson and great-grandson of renowned physicians: "Ample amounts of protein are thriving in whole, natural plant-based foods. For example, spinach is 51 percent protein; mushrooms, 35 percent; beans, 26 percent; oatmeal, 16 percent; whole wheat pasta, 15 percent; corn, 12 percent; and potatoes, 11 percent."

From the book Eat to Live by Dr. Joel Fuhrman: "Which has more protein - oatmeal, ham, or a tomato? The answer is that they all have about the same amount of protein per calorie. The difference is, the tomato and the oatmeal are packaged with fiber and other disease-fighting nutrients, and the ham is packaged with cholesterol and saturated fat…I see about twenty to thirty new patients per week, and I always ask them, 'Which has more protein - one hundred calories of steak or one hundred calories of broccoli?' When I tell them it's broccoli the most frequent response is 'I didn't know broccoli had protein in it.' I then ask them, 'So where did you think the calories in broccoli come from? Did you think it was mostly fat, like an avocado, or mostly carbohydrate, like a potato?'…When you eat large quantities of green vegetables you receive a considerable amount of protein."
