| PROTEINS FOR WEIGHT LOSS "Building blocks of life" Proteins are known as the most essential nutrients for life as they are necessary for physical development and the proper functioning of cells and our organs. Having micronutrients in your diet helps in improving body composition, as these nutrients contain chains of amino acids, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Protein derived from an animal food source is said to have high biological value proteins as it offers a complete amino acids mixture, on the other hand, proteins derived from plant food sources are known to have quite low biological value proteins without adequate amounts of amino acids. |
