There is a very large contingent of people who believe animal protein is superior to plant protein in every way, shape, or form. So this result isn’t obvious to them.
it also depends on the exercise and your goals. they aren’t equivalent.
I am a distance cyclist. animal protein works better for recovery for me than plant protein. I have tried both.
I am not trying to build muscle. I am trying to recover from endurance efforts. whey protein cuts my recovery time down by almost a full day vs plant protein.
Thats because it is? 100g of chicken has around 21g of protein. To get the same amount of proteins from plant, you would need to consume around 1000g of plants(give or take). This is why people should be really be eating both. You know, to be healthy and shit.
The study is about grams of protein in a supplement, not grams of food eaten.
This is the same thing as “What heavier: 1kg of steel or 1kg of wool?”
Also, you don’t need to eat 1000g of plants to get 21g of protein.
Peanuts have 26 grams of protein per 100g, that’s more than your example of chicken.
Black pepper is about 10% protein by weight. So, if you want to be gross, that’s about 210g of black pepper.

Such people unfortunately won’t be reading science papers or understanding their significance.
Apparently the animal protein has less lead.

I’m afraid you replied to the wrong comment, Comrade.
Depends. Price points can be vastly different. Plant based stuff is often novel pricing.

When talking about supplements, grams of protein in relation to grams of food is irrelevant.
