7. How are proteins made?  Proteins are made from chemical building blocks called amino acids.  Amino acids are all different, just like letters of the alphabet are different.  Many letters = many words  Many amino acids = many proteins  Proteins form body organs, brain cells, bones, etc.  Example: Hemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to every cell in the body.

8. Complete & Incomplete Proteins  Proteins are made from amino acids  There are 22 amino acids  9 are essential  The human body produces the rest as needed.  Complete proteins contain all 9 essential amino acids  Found in animal sources (soy products and quinoa too!)  Incomplete proteins are missing one or more essential amino acids  Found in plant sources

9. Complimentary Proteins  Eating a combination of plant foods (incomplete proteins) in an effort to get all essential amino acid.  Beans and rice  Whole wheat toast and peanut butter

10. How do I digest and use protein?  Protein in food is broken down during digestion in the small intestine – then transported via the bloodstream and reassembled again into whatever protein is needed:  Body Repair  Growth  Energy

11. Why do I need it?  Growth  Maintenance of body systems  Enzymes to help body function  Hormones  Antibodies to fight invaders  Fluid balance  Energy

12. Activity  8 Essential Amino Acids  Fold your paper in to 8 sections  Draw one symbol in each section, but you can’t use all the symbols (may be used twice or three times)  Separate your cards.  What do all 8 amino acids make? Protein Day 1
