Best Answer

One is unlikely to get protein deficiency with a healthy balanced diet.The problem may arise with vegetarians/ vegans if they do not take enough protein in their diet. Malnutrition, starving, prolonged illness, inflammatory bowel disease, extensive bowel resection, Alcoholism, malignant disease may all cause deficiency of protein in the body.

Meat, eggs, milk and diary products, vegetables, soya, lentils, bean, nuts, cereals all provide good protein and you can get protein supplement drinks also.
