Part Description

LP73201-3   Protein intake
Animal and plant proteins are made up of about 20 common amino acids. Amino acids are required for the synthesis of body protein and other important nitrogen-containing compounds, such as creatine, peptide hormones, and some neurotransmitters. Although allowances are expressed as protein, the biological requirement is for amino acids. The proteins of the body are continually being broken down and re-synthesized in a process called protein turnover. Protein is the main source of nitrogen and accounts for about 16% of the protein weight. Protein deficiency rarely occurs as an isolated condition, and usually results from insufficient food intake. The symptoms are most commonly seen in malnourished children in poor countries. Proteins are found in both animal and plant foods. Source: Regenstrief LOINC, MedlinePlus: Dietary Proteins
