The growing demand for sustainable protein sources has intensified interest in plant-based food systems. Pulses are well established and recognized as nutritious, sustainable protein sources (~15–30% dry weight), rich in lysine and limited in cysteine, methionine, and tryptophan amino acids. In contrast, Spirulina is c...
