Paneer vs Soya chunks vs Tofu: Which is healthier and has more protein?

Jaisal Kaur

Tofu contains soy and does not contain animal-based ingredients.

Paneer, also known as cottage cheese is derived from milk protein.

Soya (chunks or granules) is another enriching vegetarian source of protein and it is a less-calorie alternative to paneer.

Containing fewer calories, tofu and soya have enormous calcium and protein, which is also suitable for weight loss.

They are perfect for vegans and people who are lactose intolerant.

When it comes to weight loss, soya and tofu are the perfect option that also provide decent protein content.

Meanwhile, Paneer has more protein, calories, and fats.

For building muscles, paneer is the best.
