“The healthiest options for protein are generally from plant sources”

Total hogwash. Out bodies break down protein into amino acids, then construct the protein we need. Plants have the wrong mixture of amino acids, so a lot of left over. Bioavailability is around 50-60%, versus nearly 100% with beef.
