                                                        why do we need proteins?

                    our body uses the proteins we eat to make a lot of specialized protein molecules that have their own specific jobs. some other proteins are used to built cardiac muscles like the heart. proteins help you move your legs move your lungs, and they can protect you from a disease.

                                                  different kinds of proteins.

                         Proteins from animals like meat and milk are called complete because they contain all 9 of the amino acids. a lot of vegetable proteins are considered incomplete because they have one or more less amino acids. you can't get all the amino acids you need from just peanuts alone, but if you have peanut butter on whole grain bread you have enough amino acids. you don't have to eat all the amino acids you need in every meal but as long as you have a variety of proteins every day your body will get what it needs.
