 Consuming the specific quantity for long periods of time might result in deficiency of the amino acid.In the above example, the combination of both whole rice and canned chickpeas has no limiting amino acids, that means that only consuming rice and chickpeas, in these specific quantities of 306g/day and 261g/day respectively, for long periods of time, would not result in any of the essential amino acid deficiency, at least to the extent they are metabolized at the time.As the data of the example show, all essential amino acids are found in a specific plant, however one of them may or may not be limiting, that is, present in quantities below the WHO daily recommendation.
