Steph Grasso's recommendation is based on particularly solid nutritional foundations. On one hand, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) relies on the DIAAS score, an expert consensus showing that eggs obtain a maximum reference protein assimilation score. On the other hand, scientific literature reviews on the profile of quinoa confirm that this pseudocereal is one of the few plant-based foods to offer a complete protein as well as high fiber content. Furthermore, randomized clinical trials (RCTs) on appetite management demonstrate that the synergy between protein and vegetable fiber optimizes satiety and maintains energy. Finally, observational studies on eating behaviors validate that meal planning ('meal prep') promotes a more nutrient-dense diet on a daily basis. All of these claims are therefore perfectly validated by science, without any exaggeration or clinical jargon.
