Scientific research makes it very clear that probiotics are of vital necessity and immense benefit to humans. Probiotics not only collectively impart profound health benefits, such as vastly improved digestion and nutrient absorption, but also provide superior protection against the invasion of foreign pathogens and other infectious agents. Protein is the basic stuff of muscles, bones, hair, heart, teeth, blood, brains, skin and the zillion biochemical activities going on in our bodies every minute. When we fail to consume adequate amounts of protein, the blood and tissues can become either too acid or too alkaline. Lack of dietary protein can retard growth in children, and in adults can be a contributing factor in chronic fatigue, depression, slow wound healing, and decreased resistance to infection.
Proteins are the building blocks of human life, essential for normal growth.
Protein provides the building blocks for connective tissue and is the primary constituent of enzymes, hormones and antibodies. They encompass many of the important chemicals including immunoglobulins and enzymes. Proteins contain approximately 22 amino acids, eight of which are essential because the body cannot produce them. Therefore, they must be obtained from our food. The sulfur-containing amino acids, methionine, cystine and cysteine, are particularly important for the health of the brain and nervous system.
