Question

Which food item meets the daily recommended allowance for proteins?

Answer 1

All foods made from seafood; meat, poultry, and eggs; beans, peas, and lentils; and nuts, seeds, and soy products are part of the Protein Foods Group. Beans, peas, and lentils are also part of the Vegetable Group. For more information on beans, peas, and lentils see Beans, Peas, and Lentils are Unique Foods.

Step-by-step explanation:

Select a wide variety of protein foods to get more of the nutrients your body needs and for health benefits. Meat and poultry choices should be lean or low-fat, like 93% lean ground beef, pork loin, and skinless chicken breasts. Choose seafood options that are higher in beneficial fatty acids (omega-3s) and lower in methylmercury, such as salmon, anchovies, and trout. The advice to consume lean or low-fat meat and poultry and a variety of seafood does not apply to vegetarians. Vegetarian options in the Protein Foods Group include beans, peas, and lentils, nuts, seeds, and soy products.

Answer 2

Protein Foods. Lean and extra-lean meat; poultry without skin; eggs, fish, nuts, seeds, legumes; Five and a half-ounce (5 ½-ounce) equivalents of protein per day including: 6 to 8 ounces per week of seafood, preferably oily fish like salmon or mackerel; 5 ounces per week of nuts, seeds, beans, peas or lentils
