                                According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, protein intake should account for 10% to 35% of daily calories, a range that can certainly be met with plant-based sources. Yes, you can get enough protein from nuts and seeds, provided you understand their composition and how to combine them for a complete amino acid profile.
