Protein supplements comes in various forms and are generally used to supplement the daily diet with the purpose increasing dietary protein intake. Among the multitude of protein products sitting on the shelves of your favorite health food store, you might have noticed hemp protein next to casein protein or whey protein. It is understandable if you overlook hemp protein if it is product that you are not familiar with or if the word hemp on the label evokes feelings of reservation. However, hemp…

The question my group tried to answer was “Which protein solution contained protein, starch, and sugar, and if so how much?” The protein supplements we had were supplments 4 (Kroger Whey & Soy Protein- Vanilla),6 (Vega Protein and Greens) ,and 8 (Pure Protein Natural Whey Protein). We also had 3 reagents (Biuret’s, Lugol’s ,and Benedict’s). We had two different experiments, the first experiment was to get qualitative data. The second was to get quantitative date. The first experiment we tested…

diet. The RDA recommends we consume 0.8 grams of protein for every Kg that a person weighs. Food and Nutrition Board, Institute of Medicine. (2002) Proteins consists of amino acids, these are often referred to as its building blocks. Human beings have a biological requirement for amino acids and cannot synthesise 9 of the 20 most common. These 9 are called the essential amino acids and must be a part of our diet in order to make all the necessary proteins. Red meat has high amounts of these…

much different from that of yellow soymilk. Purple soymilk has protein, ash, fat, carbohydrate and moisture content 2.76 ± 0.13, 0.12 ± 0.08, 1.17 ± 0.06, 1.27 ± 0.10, and 94.69 ± 0.04% respectively, while yellow soymilk from Tunde-Akintunde and Souley [35] has a protein content of 2.23-3.05%, ash content of 0.24-0.32%, fat content of 1.60-1.94%, carbohydrate content of 1.99-2.78% and moisture content of 92.02-93.29%. Black soybean proteins have the good amino acid score and high digestibility…

1.5. Enzyme-Polysaccharide Interactions Proteins and enzymes have become an integral part of many industrial processes as well as being applied both in cosmetics and in therapeutics. Due to advances in biotechnology and genetic engineering, mass production of protein and enzymes has become feasible. Use of enzymes is environmentally friendly as they catalyse reactions under mild conditions against polluting inorganic catalysts which works in the extremes of pH and temperature. However, this can…

Protein give 4 calories per gram. The body can utilize protein calories with 3 way; accumulate protein in fat stores, consume it as an energy or utilize it to fulfill functions essential to life. Calories from protein will be used as an source of energy when the body is missing fat or carbohydrate calories for fuel. When the body get sufficient quantities of proteins, fats, and carbs, protein will accomplish its specific functions. These proteins functions include replacing of old cells,…

the gene encoding for a polysaccharide biosynthesis-related protein was among the down-regulated genes [29]. The results suggest two likely mechanisms of catecholamine activity on P. gingivalis and possibly other anaerobic species: an increase in the expression of some virulence…

indicated by the choosemyplate.gov analysis? What can be done to improve these areas? The greatest consistent deficiency in my diet was protein. Throughout all three days I was under the target amount. I would say that I need to add more foods that have a large amount of protein such as; turkey, fish (halibut), and egg whites. Not only was I under the target amount for protein, I was also under the target amount of dietary fiber. This means I need to start eating foods with more dietary fiber…

Beta Alanine Beta Alanine is a dietary supplement that is designed to mimic the action of the non-essential amino acid alanine that is produced naturally in the healthy body. The body to produce proteins uses amino acids. The body uses alanine to convert sugar to energy and eliminate toxins from the body. Beta alanine is the manufactured nutritional performance supplement that helps the body produce more energy and eliminate fatigue experienced by athletes. This synthetic form of amino acid is…

high in saturated fat like cakes, pastries, pies, processed meats, commercial burgers/pizza, fried foodstuffs, potato chips, crisps, biscuits and other savory snacks. One unit weight of fat contains twice the kilojoules (energy) of carbohydrate or protein. Thus, if we consume foods and drinks with too much dietary fat, it can be difficult for us to maintain a healthy body weight. All through the day, we consume a wide range of regular, healthy foods. This by itself can give us easily a small…
