Protein Foods Promote Cell Growth & Hormones




Protein Foods Enable Growth of New Cells

The perfect diet, which can provide the right kind of nutrition, is composed of a diet with the right combination of carbohydrates, proteins, minerals, and vitamins. Among all these components protein has a different and very essential role to play to keep the body in shape and make it strong.
The main function of protein is reviving the dead tissues and enabling the growth of cells. Another essential function performed by proteins in the body is the making of hormones and other serums required by the body.

Proteins from plants are as nutritious as animal proteins. A normal diet should contain 15-20% of protein and should not exceed 20 percent as suggested by new researches. Proteins are made of essential and non-essential amino acids. Protein foods contribute 4 calories of every gram consumed by the body.

The right combination of essential amino acids as per the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) 1989 is: Isoleucine (10 mg), Lysine (12mg), Leucine (14 mg), Phenylalanine (14 mg), Methionine (13 mg), Threonine (7mg), Valine (10 mg) and Tryptophan (3.5 mg).


These are the amino acids which the body needs but cannot make them and are thus only made available to the body from foods taken in comprising of these amino acids. And the protein needed by an infant is Histidine (28 mg). These amounts of proteins are taken in accordance with the body weight, per kilogram of it per day, by the body.
