Where_Do_You_Get

Proteins are essential for life processes. They play an important role in human body. They are one of the building blocks of body tissues. The main source of protein is our diet. We eat protein from animal and plants. Our bodies can synthesizes some of them amino acids, but many of them must be obtained from the diet.Protein is also be used as energy source if there is a shortage of carbohydrate and fat. Protein is important for all the cell in the body.Hair nails are mostly made of protein.our body uses protein to build and repair tissues. Along with fat and carbohydrates,protein is a macronutrient,meaning that the body needs relatively large amount of it.whereas vitamins and mineral are micronutrient which are needed in only small quantities.unlike fat and carbohydrates,the bodt does not store protein,and therefore has no reservoir to draw on when it needs a new supply.

 

 

The important functions of proteins are:

  • To provide amino acids for the formation of tissue during growth.
  • To provide the blood proteins this carries oxygen to the cell.
  • To provide amino acids for the formation of enzymes facilitate every chemical reaction.
  • Many of the hormones are protein which play important role in our body.
  • To provide amino acids for the growth of foetus in pregnancy and for the production of milk proteins during lactation.
