Proteins are vital to the body because the amino acids they produce are used to build new cells. It is believed that there is quite a bit of protein in fruits. There are, however, fruits that stand out from the rest with their higher protein content.
Instructions
Step 1
Avocado, in addition to being one of the most nutritious fruits, is also unusually rich in protein. Moreover, this protein is very high quality and is absorbed better than its counterpart from meat or poultry. Therefore, the fruit is so appreciated by vegetarians. For 100 g of pulp, there are 1, 6-2, 1 g of protein. Avocado is a dietary product that saturates well and is very useful due to the presence of vitamins and microelements in the composition. Perhaps, it can be called the most high-protein fruit.
Step 2
About 2 g of protein - in 100 g of passionfruit, which is 3% of the total weight of the fruit, and for a fruit this is a lot. Nutritionists recommend the use of passion fruit for the prevention of various diseases due to its unique properties.
Step 3
1.81 grams of protein is found in 100 date palm fruits, which are usually sold as dried fruit. There are a lot of carbohydrates in dates, so it is recommended to use them in limited quantities, especially for patients with diabetes mellitus.
Step 4
The exotic fruit durian, which grows in Asia, contains up to 1.47 g of protein per 100 g of product. This fruit is quite peculiar, it has an unpleasant odor and has a number of contraindications, including individual intolerance. However, in moderation, durian can benefit the body - strengthen the immune system, etc.
Step 5
One medium-sized banana (which usually weighs about 150 g) contains about 1 g of protein, in larger specimens - up to 1, 8 g. For 100 g of dried bananas there are up to 2, 8-3, 5 g of protein. This fruit is often preferred by athletes, however, not so much because of the proteins in it (the percentage of which seems insufficient to many athletes), but because of its high calorie content and nutritional value. An interesting fact: the protein tryptophan, which is contained in bananas, is used by the body for processing into the hormone of joy - serotonin, i.e. these fruits can help raise your mood.
Step 6
The same amount (about 1 g) of protein is present in such an exotic fruit as kiwi. In addition, the unique enzymes in kiwi help digest proteins from other foods - dairy, meat, fish. Thanks to this, the assimilation of protein in the body is faster and more complete.
Step 7
From 0.9 to 1.6 g of protein, according to various sources, can be contained in 100 g of nectarine - a fruit of Chinese origin. It is similar to peach, but has a sweeter taste, which makes it very popular.
Step 8
Approximately 0.9 g of protein, including a number of essential amino acids, is found in 100 g of apricots. The presence of a large amount of vitamins and other useful substances makes apricot one of the most valuable fruits for humans.
Step 9
Dried fruits are high in protein. So, in 100 g of dried apricots (dried apricots) - about 3.75 g of protein, in 100 g of prunes - 2.5 g.
