Why Protein Quality Matters
Not all proteins are created equal. Many “high-protein” foods contain incomplete or hard-to-digest proteins, meaning your body absorbs only a fraction of what’s claimed. Protein Detective evaluates protein quality, digestibility, and ingredient transparency to give you an honest score for every product. Make informed choices and save money by avoiding misleading marketing claims.
