Protein
Protein is a macronutrient that is made of chains of amino acids, which are termed as building blocks of the body. Essentially, protein provides our body a structural framework therefore it is found throughout the body such as muscle, bone, skin and hair.
Protein plays an important role in repairing and building cells, tissue, organs and muscles. It is also needed to produce hormones, enzymes, antibodies and breastmilk. Individuals, who are not getting enough protein on a daily basis, may experience symptoms such as weaker muscle strength, poorer immunity, muscle cramps and soreness.
Protein is constantly being broken down in our body as it is used daily to grow and maintain almost every part of the body. To replace lost protein, it is important to consume adequate amounts of it. Common food sources include poultry, dairy products, eggs and soy.
