High Protien 'Singh' Food


Lion of Punjab

Is there a reason you only want 'foods'? Lentils (daal) and Pulses (beans, rajmah etc) are generally quite high in protein.

I assume you are weight training at high intensity levels; if not, then chances are you do not need additional protein as long daal is a regular part of your diet.

If you are a serious lifter then it is recommended that a vegetarian person supplement protein in their diet. Whey based isolate protein would be the ideal choice here. You can have it mixed with milk or juice or even water. However, I must caution you that for some people mixing it with milk can result is some pretty foul flatulence. Be very aware of that.

Another point to note is that the classic "eat 1g of protein per pound of body weight" rule does not appear to be backed up by any research (at least I haven't found any research supporting this yet). Even Olympic level athletes (not body builders, they are not athletes) consume around 0.75-0.85g of protein per pound of body weight. It need not be said, they are some of the strongest and fittest people on the planet!

I would advise against "kiyoou" (ghee); way too high in saturated fat! If you are going to eat it, at least make sure you do very intense exercise on a regular basis so that the fat doesn't build up in your arteries and clog them, leading to a heart attack in a few years.

Gheo was okay in old times as our forefathers did a lot of HARD labour all day thus anything they ate was easily digested by the body. Living in Western world, we need to be more careful as even the atmosphere is different than in India.

Eat a lot of roti, milk, dahi, cottage cheese, daalaan (plural), and kiyoou.

Lay off the dairy and the kiyoou, this diet will ensure you will never be an elite athlete. If you want to argue it fine, but just take a look at how many "Elite" Punjabi athletes their are on the world stage who follow this diet that's about a century old, made for people who were farming in 40 degree weather 15 hours a day, not the sedentary lifestyle of the west, we're behind the times on our diet.

    • the whole 'your husband/wife is chosen for you'/sanjog thing is real, it's just that a lot of people end up marrying the wrong person. they did not end up with the person that was meant for them. my friend, you should marry someone who you feel a connection with and love. there are millions of sikh girls, i'm sure you can find someone who aligns with your sensibilities and who you can truthfully say that you love. sikhi does not say anything against love marriages. you can also be in a loveless arranged marriage which is a safe option b/c both families are more inclined to keep the union intact. i was one of those people who was like meh, i guess i'll just get arranged to some sikh. well i finally started dating for the first time this year and i'm getting married to someone that i love and cannot even imagine leaving. i think it's better to have lost & lost than never loved at all. unfortunately, a lot of people confuse love w/ looks & lust. a lot of men go for the fittest girl they can find and think they won the jackpot or something. in reality, your partner should be like an extremely loved best friend. there's a reason why it's a fact that the most stable and long-lasting relationships started as friendships.  i also think a lot of women are petty and divorce over small reasons, but there's other terrible things like high cheating rates as well. that's why the divorce rate in the west is high. be careful out there.
    • andrew tate praises sikhi too & likes sikhs. his brother also donated to sikh families iirc. they just like any "alpha" religion and tbh islam is the most "alpha" in their eyes. islam is very good at promoting that image. but imo a real alpha man doesn't command respect by beating up his wive(s) or forcing them to wear a burqa. a real man will have his woman listen to him w/o raising a hand or his voice, and command respect by being respectful. he leads by example and integrity. that's true masculinity. you get the idea. + yes, it's definitely true that islam is growing rapidly and making massive inroads. strength in numbers + belief will do that. but rlly it's just because of the birth rate. a lot of them are muslim b/c it's their "identity" just like how a lot of young sikhs will say they're "culturally sikh" or whatever. there just aren't billions of sikhs who lambast their identity everywhere and have strict and linear rules like in islam. besides, the reality is that islam and its followers are some of the most morally bankrupt. you can see all the weird trans rules in iran, bacche baazi in afghanistan, visiting brothels, watching p*rn, p*dophilia what goes on behind the scenes in countries like uae & qatar, etc, and come to your conclusions. you can google all the stats yourself and see which countries do the most of these ^.   
    • stop associating with hinduism, that's the absolutely worst thing you can do as a sikh. not sure if you noticed but the entire world looks down upon and spits at india & hindus, literally no one respects them and considers them weak and cowardly. literally 1+ billion of them but not perceived as a strong religion commandeering respect. 
    • you wrote a whole lot but told us nothing. what exactly did you do wrong to make you feel this way?
