Protein is an essential nutrient that provides amino acids for growth, repair, and maintenance of the body's tissues. It is made up of 20 amino acids, 9 of which must be obtained through food. Animal proteins like meat and dairy are considered "complete" as they contain all essential amino acids, while plant proteins like grains are "incomplete." The amount of protein needed varies from 0.4-1g per pound of body weight depending on activity level and goals like muscle building or fat loss. High protein diets have not been shown to harm health if calories are managed. Good sources of protein include meat, eggs, dairy, nuts, and legumes.

WHAT IS
PROTEIN
Protein is incredibly important, and without it our body composition and
health greatly suffer as a result.
Proteins are an essential nutrient and can be broken down into 20 building
blocks known as amino acids. Out of these 20 amino acids, 9 are considered
to be essential as the body cannot synthesize its own, meaning we must
obtain these from animal and plant sources. The other 11 aminos can be
synthesized by the body, making them non-essential.
2. www.TheHealthyTomato..com
PROTEIN QUALITY
When considering a protein source, one of the most popular methods is to classify
the food by its biological value (BV).
The biological value of a protein is based on its quantity of the essential amino
acids. So a food with a high BV (also known as a complete protein) contains all 9
essential aminos. This is commonly seen in animal and dairy products.

THE ROLE OF
PROTEIN
When we do consume sufficient amounts of high quality and
complete proteins, it has a whole host of benefits.
Proteins provide building materials – amino acids – for growth and repair
of body tissues.
Proteins form vital parts of most body structures, such as skin, nails, hair,
membranes, muscles, teeth, bones, organs, ligaments and tendons.
Proteins facilitate numerous chemical reactions in the body; all enzymes
are proteins.
Some proteins act as chemical messengers, regulating body processes;
not all hormones are proteins.
Proteins assist the body in maintaining its resistance to disease by acting
against foreign disease-causing substances.
Proteins help regulate the quantity of fluids in body compartments.
Proteins act as buffers, to maintain the normal acid and base
concentrations in body fluids.
Proteins move the required nutrients and other substances into and out
of cells and around the body.
Protein can be used to provide calories (4 calories per gram) to help
meet the body’s energy needs.

HOW MUCH PROTEIN
DO WE NEED
The debate still continues on how much protein we need daily, but
there appears to be a general agreement that active individuals
need a higher intake than sedentary people.
THE AVERAGE INTAKE
For a healthy person of a healthy weight who is
mainly sedentary and is not seeking changes in
body composition – then an intake of 0.4 – 0.6
grams of protein per pound bodyweight is
sufficient.
WHEN LOSING BODY FAT
Having a high protein intake during a calorie deficit is
also important, as it is very anabolic, meaning we are
more likely to preserve lean body tissue in the
process.

HOW MUCH PROTEIN
DO WE NEED
WHEN BUILDING MUSCLE
The studies that look at muscle mass and protein intake
tend to vary from 0.8-1.0+ gram per pound bodyweight,
so it’s safe to say a balanced approach would be most
beneficial, so around 1g per pound bodyweight is highly
effective.
ELDERLY
The research shows a daily intake of 0.45-0.6
gram per pound bodyweight. Finally, those
recovering from injuries may also benefit from a
higher protein diet.

DANGERS OF A
HIGH PROTEIN DIET
HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
There is no link to protein causing increased risk of
coronary heart disease.
There is no link to protein causing liver or kidney
damage in healthy subjects.
Recent studies show a positive relationship between
protein intake and bone health.
Many people will try and tell us that a high protein diet is bad for us,
and that it is linked to cardiovascular disease, dehydration, calcium loss
and damaged liver and kidney function. The question that must be
asked is – show us the accurate research.
