This person does a good job of explaining the protein myth.
Enzymes are biomolecules that catalyze (i.e. increase the rates of) chemical reactions. Almost all enzymes are proteins.
—from Wikipedia.org
For the raw vegan, s/he can get an abundance of enzymes from fresh fruits and vegetables. And coincidentally, almost all enzymes are proteins. In addition, amino acids can be found in virtually all foods, and are the “building blocks” of protein.
