Protein 101: Behind the Product Proteins are a macronutrient - TopicsExpress



          

Protein 101: Behind the Product Proteins are a macronutrient comprised of linked amino acids, which are the main source of nitrogen in the body. Maintaining a proper nitrogen balance is critical for muscle growth and repair. Because our body does not produce its own protein, we must take it in through food. Athletes and active individuals need significantly more dietary protein than sedentary individuals in order to help build and repair muscles. It is important to note that not all proteins are created equal. Different dietary proteins are ideal for different applications. Some are fast absorbing, while others take longer to digest. Each type contains different proportions of amino acids, and has varying effects on the body.
