Another Change in our World

SO...Esther Dickey, famous food storage author had a daughter who grew up and co wrote a new book (with her mom)...
I am still studying this book and have discovered IT needs updating again! It was published in 1999. That is 14 years ago.

There is new understanding of some things, now.

For example...THE COMPLETE PROTEIN MYTH

It used to be thought that to get the complete protein that your body needs, you needed to eat grains and legumes together in the meal.
On page 85 of Rita Bingham's book (pictured above), it says..

"Plant protein comes from three main classes of foods:
legumes, beans, peas and lentils), nuts and seeds, and grains.
 Proteins from plant sources are "incomplete proteins",
because one or more of the 8 essential amino acids
 are missing or in short supply (with the exception of soy beans).
Legumes must be combined with another protein source from
another class of foods, such as seeds or grains. (or animal products)."

THIS IS NOT TRUE.

Our daughter has a bachelor's degree in Community Health (graduated in 2005). While taking a class in 2007 (to update her knowledge, since she herself was a teacher for the Utah State University Extension  in a program called Smart Start where she taught homemakers how to fix nutritious meals.) she was still being taught this concept. In 2009, her instructors offered a new class and taught that now research has shown that your body CAN make needed protein out of the amino acids it randomly receives at random times. I can attach her source later....but here is a source I found...that refutes the "Combined Protein Myth":
