Protein in food contributes essential amino acids to your diet. Amino acids are used by cells to build new proteins and repair the muscles, repair the bone, skin, organs and blood.

Finding a good source of protein for each meal can be a challenge, at first, for vegetarians. Most North Americans are accustomed to having some form of meat at each meal, even when another high-protein food is present, yet for vegetarians it is these other sources of essential amino acids that are vital for a balanced diet.

Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) is the most lethal form of malnutrition/hunger. It is basically a lack of calories and protein.  The PKU Low Protein Medical Food Pilot Project was designed to increase the consumption of low protein medical foods, therefore facilitating access to proper diet management.There are many different kinds of amino acids. Some must be obtained from foods, while others are made by the body as needed.

The problem remains for them that even when all amino acids are present, the assimilation of all those amino acids will be limited to the lowest quantity amino acid in their meal. For example, if one amino acid is only present in half the amount your body needs, the assimilation of all the other amino acids will be limited to that same 60% level.

It has been difficult to shape a high-protein food into a plate form because of its high protein content and a low lipid content. It is very difficult to make a high-protein food in plate form with, for example, a conventional process customarily used for making cookies or crackers.

It is well over 2/3 essential amino acids and boasts nearly THREE DOZEN PROTEIN COMPOUNDS This product makes any protein food you eat “complete”!

The world produces enough food to feed everyone. World agriculture produces 17 percent more calories per person today than it did 30 years ago, despite a 70 percent population increase.

When searching for a novel protein food for your companion, read labels carefully.  Many canned foods and kibble will bear a name suggesting a novel protein, but upon reading the ingredients you may find another protein listed such as eggs or chicken.  Look for food specifically designed for the sensitive pet such as California Natural canned and kibble, Wellness Simple Foods, Natural Balance Allergy Formulas, or Wysong Anergen.  Better yet, choose a pre-mix such as Sojo’s, Honest Kitchen Preference or Dr. Harvey’s and add your own protein source ?

It is well established that how bodies absorb different nutrients, including amino acids, may be up-regulated or down-regulated, according to what foods are supplied on a regular basis. In other words, the body’s digestive enzymes adjust to account for regular food intake.

The body uses protein in the form of amino acids to build and maintain every cell.
