Proteins make up 1/5 of your body weight.
How are proteins made? Proteins are made from chemical building
blocks called amino acids. Amino acids are all different, just like letters of the
alphabet are different. Many letters = many words Many amino acids = many proteins
Proteins form body organs, brain cells, bones, etc. Example: Hemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells
that carries oxygen to every cell in the body.
Complete & Incomplete Proteins Proteins are made from amino acids
There are 22 amino acids 9 are essential
The human body produces the rest as needed.
Complete proteins contain all 9 essential amino acids Found in animal sources (soy products and quinoa
too!) Incomplete proteins are missing one or more
essential amino acids Found in plant sources
Complimentary Proteins Eating a
combination of plant foods (incomplete proteins) in an effort to get all essential amino acid. Beans and rice Whole wheat toast
and peanut butter
How do I digest and use protein? Protein in food is broken down during
digestion in the small intestine – then transported via the bloodstream and reassembled again into whatever protein is needed: Body Repair Growth Energy
Why do I need it? Growth Maintenance of
body systems Enzymes to help
body function Hormones Antibodies to fight
invaders Fluid balance Energy
